Wow, I didn't catch that. What the heck?! It has 32GB guaranteed space and you still can't fit more than six major apps at a time?

In fairness, though, it's probably because they need to be compatible with inferior OS's like Windows, which can't be bothered to support, uh, any file systems other than ntfs and fat. (The tablet uses ext for system stuff, since it's a decent file system). Hopefully it's all on the same card, though, so people who use Linux will be able to resize that partition...

I'm still on the fence about this gadget. I want to see if they have an N910 in the works with phone stuff stripped out; I'm one of those anti-phone people (we have a lot of them here), and I find an intermittent Internet connection actually serves me really well (where I live). Also, the extra thickness here defeats the classic PDA thing again. I want this with a nearly edge-to-edge screen, thin enough to fit in a shirt pocket.
That is unless someone conjures up a really good pay-as-you-go type of data plan for the tablets.
the LED indicator is on the front..

you can install applications in the 32GB

it was discussed before in this thread..
