Yeah speaking personally, I hate the bloody thing, the screen makes my eyes cross when I compare it to my beautiful 17" Dell flat screen. But when I plugged the n900 into my telly, my grin grew.

Then we come to my exquisite full size keyboard, the ease of use when compared to the new horrible monster that has come into my life, so horridly does the Lilliputian mangle my internet experience, why on earth wasn't the slide out screen - a touch screen, I find the slide-out mechanical keyboard a nightmare and the touch-screen keyboard a delight. So why not make the next upgrade, with a touch screen version of the mechanical keyboard,

If enough of us vote for a slide-out touch screen keyboard, then I will gladly pay for an upgrade as long as Nokia sets a fair price.

In other words if Nokia retools its production line to make a screen with the same technology as used to make the main screen, but with the same size, to replace the current mechanical keyboard, with a touch screen keyboard, based on the same software as the current software used to poll the mechanical keyboard - very doable.

Restated.

I send you my n900 by a secure route, you detach my old keyboard, fit a new keyboard that can be visually reconfigured in terms of the task you want to execute, you save money by not having to sell me a whole new n900, I give you money, everyone happy.

Ok new memory tech appears, incorporate don't throw it away.

We need to be able to store the contents of memory on USB Flash drives, ie a battery backed device that you can plug a USB flash drive into, the current crop of USB flash drives are very cute.

If I can store n900 content on USB flash drives, the world is most truly my oyster.



I am willing to invest.

Peter.
