My tablet experience was vastly different than my phones though. There's a difference. My internet tablet gave me a good screen while away from my desktop.
I merely stated the fact that noone forced you to buy it, I did not imply that you had said that anyone were forcing you to buy it. You were however sounding like this ment the end for a platform (for you) while I don't see a reason why it needs to be so. This seems to be a product unrelated to your tablet upgrade plan. When iPple created the iPod touch, it didn't mean people had to give up on their iPhones. It may even be that not all iPhone owners bought an iPod touch.

- I hope the marketing department doesn't decide on what features goes into the machine. I would hope R&D had something to do with it.

- How many WiFi phones are there with iTunes, outlook, siphon sync, Skype, Gizmo and video chat? That has a good web browser on top?

It's one thing to see what features the tablet doesn't have. The lack of Java should be far higher on the list. But as a Maemo phone, the N900 should be highly competative to top end phones.

The things the tablet lacks the most sorely are things phones are better at. And now it seems Nokia is doing a job to make this more like a phone? I would think that means more than adding a 3G chip.
