Here's another one for you all to complain about: Where's the stylus.

If this leak is true, I for one am very happy with Nokia's directions and decisions. As before, I will DEFINITELY be picking up one of these at launch.

1) Size. The smaller size make it far more pocketable (the N810 is just too large). Plus the market response for similarly sized devices (iPhone, Pre, G1), has been nothing short of amazing.

2) Great hardware features. The hardware features are quite impressive and very complete.

3) A touch based interface focus. The biggest problem with the current tablets is the desktop paradigm on a handheld device. Linux is not a "desktop OS," just an OS. Get rid of the stylus completely; it encourages poor design for a device this size.

4) A Phone built in - One more radio and a bit of code open up the market tremendously. This fills a need provide a compelling reason to purchase the N900 over the competitions products.

5) OVI store - This is a software choice that shows that Nokia is listening to the trends and intends to put more tablets in peoples hands. All of this means more choice for the consumer.

6) Maemo - By all indications, the current tablet line has tanked in the market. Nokia continues to push maemo despite this face. We should be glad they haven't given up on their strategy and vision. This unwavering resolve is inspiring.


YARR!
