I've always been a fan of "all-in-one" solutions but - the last thing I'd like to do is to carry the tablet as my phone.
You can always have very slim and small phone so carrying both is no longer an issue (I use E51).
I've dreamed about phone with "everything possible" but I've found that even with E51 connecting and disconnecting headphones (I don't like using them for calls) makes me forget about E51 as music device etc.
Maybe I'm just getting older but I think it's fun to have "equivalents" of all devices in one but not for regular usage.

This goal is partly succeeding.
This is how it worked in OS2007, you had 2 modes, pressing by finger gave you big start menu, touching by stylus gave you small one. They removed this feature in OS2008. Let's hope they will add it back in some form (even static stylus/finger mode choice in control panel would be good for me).

Yes, we can hope.

But the sad fact is that it's simply easier/cheaper for Nokia to ignore useful UI features and just go for the iPhone-copying finger sh*te.

I've got a phone already (actually I've got more than one), there's no need to have built-in 3G in the NIT and yet another SIM card and carrier contract. And a NIT, to be useful, is too large to use as an all-purpose (thus only) phone. IMO there's absolutely nothing whatsoever to gain by having a phone built into the NIT.

If it's not clear from the above I'm stating that I strongly disagree with the previous poster and also the earlier post above about 'quad band gsm'.

That's not very realistic in a mobile world.

Perhaps a good solution to those wanting a tablet and a phone would be a differently branded device (E900 or something) that expanded upon the Nxxx line with a cell radio and the necessary software to drive it.

I for one would heartily leap at such a device. I suppose I'm pro phone. Of course, I currently don't have a mobile but would like one at some point. The prospect of buying two separate devices is not very appealing for me.

If wimax ever gets sorted (and is reliable), this is a moot point, as I'll happily use the N810w for VoIP. My only wish would be the ability to hold it to my head for quick, private calls.

Already can use (the N800) as a headset; just crank the volume down. And as much as my mobile is audible from all directions, even the N810's side-facing speakers should pose no problem.
