The N900 merge a tablet with a phone, making it both.
Yes. It has phone capabilities. I don't think Nokia is saying that it is not a phone.

But it's a bit like saying that the N900 is a mp3 player.

Well, yes. It plays mp3's. In a ok manner.

No, I wouldn't still use that statement too much. Nokia calls it a mobile computer. That statement is rather meaningful, to indicate the primary intended focus.

There are better phones out there. Nokia makes them, also.
