Actually even though I want me Tablet and need to have my phone too on it - I still will be part of this very same community - since I still consider the N900 with a 3.5" screen as a tablet - albeit a smaller one - as I still have Maemo on it, can still run all the apps as I do now on my N810 and enjoy the benefits of Maemo 5 as well. The only difference - pluses for me - is I get a better camera too and a voice phone too.

So don't exclude all us guys who want the N900 (provided we can afford it) from the "community". And when you get your version of the tablet - a 4" screened one without voice - we will still be a part of the same community - maemo.

BTW, when you said there will be a larger market for the tablets - if you are talking outside of the community - then I think the larget market is always for the phone device rather than tablet only - as tablet only audience is always a limited niche market.

I do feel for you - in that your anticipation of a new tablet is now being delayed.
