I realize this solves nothing for anyone, but I'm hoping it at least explains motives behind the current tablet's direction. I could be wrong. However, I would also dearly love a version with an enterprise focus...
I hadn't really thought of it that way. Nokia mobile phones are (obviously) released the same way... (whacks his head with a DOH!).

I still think Skype can be one of the handful of apps that will give strong cred to the N800. Perhaps it's not Skype...just VOIP. But since Gizmo has not caught on, perhaps the more-established Skype can do so. I think folks will be surprised by how useful an established, working VOIP app can be.
