Best of all, because it's entirely nothing but eInk display, you could (by software) decide whether to have a black phone, a white phone, or any kind of a design all over the phone. Suddenly makes choose your desktop wallpaper on your current Android phone look stupid now, doesn't it? ...oh my God... ANIMATED SHELL!

Apple people! You can have your choice of WHITE... or BLACK with ANY unit!! Also, it can tell you when you're holding it wrong.

...& include all of the great ideas from the "I don't want a Phone, just a modernized N8x0" thread from before the N900 came out.


My biggest wish was Modular connecting via BT/WiFi/ NFC whatever.

Main Bits:

Cellular modem (bring your own carrier)
CPU/Storage/Battery
Screen - pick a size to fit your needs... resistive / capacitive
-Wrist mounted display / interface (ala Dick Tracy)
-Head mounted / glasses (for the super geeky)

New cellular tech hits 4(n+1)G or you change carriers....new modem vs new device.

New screen tech ... new screen vs new device

etc....
