about the Skype comment, from my experience with phones and voip apps, I'd hope Nokia/Maemo would instead create an SIP client that supports the various providers video options instead of depending on a service provider to create its own UI. It makes the phone part of the device more simplified, and Nokia's removal of the SIP client in the N95 has been horrible for Google Voice. No Contacts implementation, no call log functionality, and no number pad in most apps during a call lets me know Nokia better have SIP built in, and if we want video call support via Skype or whoever else, Nokia must facilitate it, not depend on individual apps to do so.

I wonder if a Nokian can comment about whether there will or won't be any dev discount devices?
As a comment aside, we just booked today 40 twin rooms x 3 nights in Amsterdam, offered to the Maemo community for sponsored partipants to the Summit. If this gives you a hint about Nokia moving along without you then you probably should read less Internet stuff and pick a good book or something equally relaxing.

I'll buy but only once my E51 dies and the reviews are truly positive. With the benefit of lower pricing, I hope. Meanwhile I will enjoy the N810 at home (it rarely leaves home now). Problem is the E51 is quite sturdy... and the N810 still works well (although slower then before).
I would not use the device for direct Internet access: 3G is too expensive in France right now, that is until the fourth operator (hopefully the one that already shaked the market in Internet access, telephony and TV, "Free") wins the auction which was launched by the French government this month.
Regards,
Antonio

danramos, I get clouded in my gadget whore persona much too often, and Doggmann, a respected mobile icon from the UK and fellow Symbian Freak, has had to check me enough times already. That's why I'm not a project manager for Nokia, and only a user.
I think smartphone users are used to paying this much for top of the range kit, but the tablet community is up in arms. I wonder if its a mythical number, or did Nokia position it that way, or if the phone hardware actually upped the price that much. I think its more a positioning thing, and we'll see it heavily subsidized to offset sticker price.

is the N800 refresh a demand for a keypadless model?

It's easy to throw money to rent a bunch of rooms and proudly puff out your chest and claim it's proof that you're supporting the community. It's not so easy to actually support the community as proof.

Biggest thing for me (college student) is price and network coverage. Right now, my cell phone is useless in my dorm, and I am living off SIP and my N810's Google voice capabilities. Actually, Google Voice support is also big on my list.
So, price vs iPhone, Pre, Andorid pretty much. I hope it is not 700 subsidized, because then i cannot get it. If it is like 200 subsidized, oh yeah!
