3: It lacks phone functionalities, which normal users look for now a days. So Nokia failed at that aspect, it's just a better N810

4: No Navigator and stand-alone number keys which makes the physical full QWERTY keyboard less usable.

5: Reduced screen size comparing with N810 and the battery is a lot bit too small for this kind device.

6: Lack of Capacitive screen + with multitouch (it's a step back in technology, at least to the normal users)

Over-all, the device is a powerful machine, but it just doesn't bring it to todays expectations. The freedom + power isn't enough to sell to those people who expect more phone-power (yes, I know, phone second, etc, etc....still disappointing for most people looking for an all-in-one device)
I'd only recommend it to techies.
1. MMS - Most operators will pass a link to their download server so you can still receive them but requires a click to do so.

2. Portrait - Would be nice for some things but I still manage a lot single handed with this once on.

3. Well I thought it was supposed to be a better N810 - N770->N800->N810->N900.

4. None of the previous tablets had seperate number keys so would have to be a LOT bigger or microscopic keys. The lack of a navigation device can be awkward for certain use cases but with a touch screen what is really restricted here?

5. Bigger screen would have been nice. I liked the N810 format too but I'm getting used to this as well. Battery life on a lot of cellular devices is not so good but I get at least a heavy days' usage out of it. I tend to be paranoid though so extra battery fully charge lives in my pocket. Nice and slim so no issues there.

6. Capative screen is really a question of choice. I find the screen on the N900 is plenty responsive enough and even know a few people that now hate capactive due to being too sensitive. Multi touch is nice for somethings but then that would ruin the single handed use you mentioned earlier surely?
