having the phone and resistive probably wouldn't change the experience all that much.. like you say, very sensitive resistive screen with good input refresh may function well enough to give a cross between capactive + resistive (maybe).

But the small screen size... nothing can escape that. There's a reason that android and iphone's app look the way they do. It's not due to the resolution or DPI. It's the physical size.

I think my n810 is the perfect size (screen and product). It could be a little more comfortable to hold, maybe a little lighter, and perhaps thinner, but overall I really have no problem with it. The screen size of this new n900 bums me out, so I am definitley like sachin in that I am hoping there is some sort of RX-56 release shortly after the 51 which is more tablet-esk. I guess I'm being overly hopeful that they will announce it on the 2nd as well as Rover.

Agreed, the N810 was the right size and proportions and it looked just 'right'.

Theres some about this that doesnt look right, cant quite put my finger on it yet, but the AR of the screen look wrong.

I'm a pretty big nerd, but I don't think I've ever sat at my computer refreshing a review site and a twitter feed for hours.

I don't even like twitter.
