I think the N810 is a wonderful piece of hardware.

I think the largest "design change" to the N8xx hardware has nothing to do with the physical system, but rather the software. The software library is rich and varied, but not easily accessed by casual owners. The maemo repository is large, but is more of a development community with a sourceforge feel; not ideal for non-developers/nerd.

I would like to see a site devoted to the layman -- not the tech-head that comprehends the esotericisms of project pages and changelogs -- with pages that really 'sell' the free applications with comprehensive pictures/videos and lists of features. A site that rates and reviews these applications and provides one-click-installations.

Right now, to the layman without a technical mate or technical savvy, is largely limited to the software that ships with the system. A far cry from the true potential of the N8xx internet tablet family.


Only the glassy surface of the sea can show you who you truly are.
