Dont get me wrong, I like the idea of the slide out keyboard, but I am certainly not seeing the want to spend 500$ for 21% increase in processing power. I already own the bt keyboard and GPS, so not a big win in my book.

At least the 770 to 800 was a 32% increase in processing performance and adoubling of memory, Hopefully the n900 won't be 10-12% increase.

WHAT IS ALL THE HYPE ABOUT?

well even nokia is not positioning this as more than a compliment or marginal upgrade over the n800 (the numbering did not increase by 100 like the previous jump). I think this is exactly how they "positioned" it when stepping around the FCC filings earlier. A new consumer who feels they want an internet tablet to surf a site or two from the couch without booting up the computer will gladly buy this with the keyboard and the slightly faster specs than worry about buying an 800, upgrading the OS, overclocking the processor, getting a bluetooth keyboard, pairing the two .. and then going at it.
