1) Virtual Pool (uh.. wtf?)

2) An accounting/cash management app (homebank, I can even sync the database with my Linux boxes.. very nice).

3) Checklist/shopping apps (I use notecase, again I can sync the databases. I use to use online websites but I like having offline capability as well)

4) a todo list that works, with more advanced ones (i.e. Things) available (how advanced do you need? I'm fine with notecase.. I use to do todos on rememberthemilk but I found it was inefficient)

5) Calendars that work (though simple, PocketInformant is on the way, huzzah!) (Mcalendar and calendar + erming). Syncs with Google calendar just fine

6) Fring (Fring)

7) Speed - PDF reading and zooming is very pleasant! (ok, but the small screen bugs me)

8) iSilo (dunno what this is)

9) Commercial developers willing to commit (see #9) (ok)

10) Great music and video management (meh, that's dependent on the user. I HATE HATE HATE iTunes. To me it's the worse music and video management out there, especially how they decide to create a seperate database when I already have my files organized). Btw, can you even drag and drop files into the iPod Touch / iPhone? Or do you have to use iTunes if you want it to show up in the media programs and what not? If so that's a weakness in my view (again it could be a strength to another). Especially as a primary Linux user (no iTunes and I don't feel like booting into Vista to use it).

Open source has helped plenty. Applications can be ported over from Linux already (in fact some of the ones used like homebank were). Then you also have projects like KDE and Debian porting which although a little slow (remember the processor of the tablet is like a Pentium P2. So if they n800 were given similar specs as the iPhone then it would be faster [thus n900 series?]) it brings alot of capability to the tablet. So again, I repeat.. to me an iPhone and iPod touch is only useful to me when I can jailbreak it (but my uses are alot different then most common users).

I'm personally looking forward to Android's development. It has the pros of the iPhone/iPod touch + the open sourceness and freedom that Linux provides.
