That would keep my dev. machine purely for development and my mail/contacts/whatever portable.

Maybe Nokia could even start selling LCD TVs/monitors off the back of the N800, for people who want the internet at a decent resolution but don't want/need a full PC.

I just used an iphone recently for the first time. I'd so buy one if they supported third party apps, like SSH. The responsiveness in the UI is absolutely amazing. And the multi-touch is nice too.

so instead, grab a 770 or N800, a bluetooth keyboard, a feature phone with bluetooth, and install dropbear.

It is still at the rumourmill stage but if true and matches the artists impression then it could be a force to be reckoned with.

Nah, people will still claim it's not a competitor because it's only got one hardware button. The N800's got 12 - it's not even in the same league!

Just to put things into perspective...
The Newton was discontinued by Jobs in 1998.
Rumours about a "new Newton" have been surfacing since... 1998.

.. and still it feels like my T3 has got more buttons.. but it's only got 7!
(but then again it's also got a 'reset hole' at the back, which my N800 never needs! Ha!
