It would be a god work desk device if the immediate Internet is not at your disposal but it's too big to be a real everyday device... N900 of the same lenght bit with the streaks thickness would be boss... Future iterations I am sure will have such qualites it's just a matter of patients... Dell streak is a sexy piece hardware though... I like gadgets!
I didn't intend to be a patient ...
And I don't want to continue to be a patient, undergoing experimental nSeries experiments.
I'm actively looking for an upgrade to the n810 ...
Bigger screen w/ stylus, higher resolution, physical keyboard, linux, something as good as maemo-mapper (what happened to gnuite.com???), and still pocketable. Oh ... Nokia, or whomever else (Dell?), providing reasonable support it for a period of time longer than a couple of battery replacements!

What's wrong with a video-speaker-phone that's big enough to see? You'd look really silly holding a videophone up to your ear

The n810 is a damn good product. I thought only Micro$#!+ had a policy of making good hardware obsolete by using proprietary drivers and software to force hardware upgrades to match forced software upgrades that cost more money and provide LESS than what was originally purchased !!!

Now, I'm looking at the Streak, the Fujitsu uSeries, the Pandora, and whatever else I can find to fit the bill that isn't "abandoned", and hopefully won't be anytime soon.
