doubt there will be an open source community developing Free apps for it,
it will be running a stripped down OSX. So I doubt if Iphone & N800 will
be competitors.
It's Mac, not MAC (that what your ethernet card identifies itself with). I'd disagree with your assessment of Mac users as the non-techie sort (of course this is anecdotal) 90% of my friends use Apple machine, all of them are competent with computers, and many of them are quite technical. I'd say that there are far more incompetent (both as a percentage and in numbers) Windows users than there are Mac users.

Also: it might be worthwhile to not to use initialisms when writing an e-mail to rebuff a WSJ review. And it's the iPhone, not the Iphone, nor is it I-phone, iphone, i phone, or IPHONE .
