dont get me wrong sweety, id absoultely love to spin through google maps, youtube, engadget, etc. The reality is, those sites arent made for 800x480, they arent made for little processors, small memory, and lack of video performance chipsets.

what im saying is very simple. if you are a company, and want to make a product, look at your competitors. i dont own an iPhone, but I respect to hell what Apple has done to put the world in our hands, and useable by our fingers. they looked at the problems, and for some of them, created elegant solutions. nokia, being the powerhouse it is, would benefit greately by one upping them, or at minimum, at least copying them.

even the concept tablet devices that Intel is working on understand that if you want to touch something, well, it should be designed to be touched. we cant covert the whole web to our format, but, the important sites/programs we want to use daily should be.
