"...considering that we haven't even said what which Maemo device will be." and the talk about a lead device to me seems that there are more than one.

Of course, it might just be me imagining stuff between the lines.
My take on it is that the Maemo Unit hopes there will be multiple devices, but they are starting with the smartphone. If it succeeds, then we'll see more devices, maybe including a bigger-screen non-phone tablet. I suspect there is no such tablet planned or scheduled yet.

So we may have a good delay, after launch of the N900 phone, before it comes out, if ever. I think that's a shame since they already have a community based on a tablet and I believe there's a larger market that would want such a tablet (but not want the N900 phone) if it were marketed properly. (I especially think it's a shame since it's what I want!)

So I haven't lost hope! I just don't like to see Hope Delayed. Thanks.
