As you rightly state the hardware is great and the software is being worked on everyday so I have high hopes for the future of the platform.
As much as we hope that it will become slightly more mainstream I think we know in reality that it won't be mainstream like the iPhone. Part of that is because of Nokia, part of that is because of the n900, and part of that is because of the consumers themselves (insert negative statement about humanity due to the bitterness from my years of study in psychology in social and cognitive fields).

But what we can hope for is a bigger userbase that continues to increase which leads to more applications (both from companies and new developers).
