Check out my 'other-half'. It goes into production later this year. Price is 1000 euros, and I'm accepting pre-orders for 200 euros. No free t-shirts.

How very "useful".
Look at Apple: the iphone 3GS, came out a few months before the N900 and is still _supported_. It still gets iOS updates. It's just incredible! And why does Apple does this? Ecosystem. Instead of having a new platform every release and burning all the bridges, you invite all your older friends and your userbase always grows, instead of you always starting from scratch.
That's a level of "support" that I could - and do - happily do without. Sadly, I can't drag the rest of the family with me quite yet.

It looks annoyingly big in comparison. I start to worry.

Where is the slide out keyboard?

P: I’m sure you’re aware that one of the biggest other-half possibilities we’ve heard, on Twitter and in comments, is one that supports a physical QWERTY keyboard. Is that a possibility?
MD: I have a big smile on my face! The sky is the limit, and the imagination is the limit for what can be done with the other-half.
with "the other half" , I can imagine nfc hwkb to be detached at the phone's back. Look at the camera module position, it is really possible for it to make space for hwkb accesories. hopefully they will come with stock detachable HWKB for reference.

Though I dislike the large bezel it does leave room for game controls if we can get a other half that attaches game controls.
Kind of like this nintendo concept phone
http://www.concept-phones.com/gaming...ing-wii-video/
but smaller with the controllers on the bezel.
So possibilities are for the other half
1) HW KB
2) Extra Battery
3) E Ink display showing selectable image using super low power
4) Artistic covers that interact with ambiance and add consumable or secret special content using NFC and its own memory including holographic images that contain tags or glow in the dark cases
5) Game controllers
6) Solar charger with extra battery maybe from goal zero
7) Liquidmetal super case that keeps bouncing when you drop it
8) Case with kickstand
9) Tricorder
10) Stun Gun
11) Swiss army case includes many pull out tools like vibrating toothbrush and pleasure devices
12) Wireless charging and battery
13) Pico projector
14) track pad or pull out blue tooth dual mouse/headset
15) Case with dock connections
16) Something giving it more power to act as a desktop with dock
17) Alternative charging like kinetic charger or fuel cell
18) Sticky case or mini bean bag for in car on your dash so it wont move
19) Police radar detector lol
20) Self destruct device in case of theft
