Right on!
I remember back in the early eighties someone used a Z80 to control a two hour multprojector presentation synced to a Beatles soundtrack. That show toured the world. It required quite a set-up crew but I believe it was replicated by other companies and a lot of people saw it.

The point is, the N800 as it sits could do all that and more.
Hell it has potentially more capabilities than my first notebook, and that ran Windows!

Back on topic...

I think Nokia could and should provide as many versions or "forms" as they can imagine for the current firm/software.

Likewise, I think all the "functions" of the the current firm/software have yet to be realized.

One of the reasons I jumped on this bus was because I no longer wanted to be on the 18 month treadmill of hardware obsolescence that WinTel had me on.

In the long run that treadmill stifles creativity and snuffs out imagination.
