Consider that the next standard hard media format (to replace CDs and DVDs) is the SD card. Downloads notwithstanding, consumers should soon be able to buy/rent SD cards with prerecorded content, possibly in several portable device formats on a single card. So Netflix sends you an SD card with the movie of your choice, you pop it into your N800 as desired, and keep your kid quiet in the backseat on that long boring trip. So now, who needs portable DVD players?

.. or having a major application (e.g. navigation app with all the maps) in slot 1, and your external files in slot 2. That would work.

True enough, but I was thinking along the lines of having the camera act more as a sort of tilt sensor, which wouldn't necessarily need to be facing you to work.

Not sure on the button layout. The A & B buttons could remain the same. Has anyone tried VBA on the N800? If show how is the performance?

Can't answer that question, but what I'm hoping to see in gaming are:

-more multiplayer server based games. Freeciv was a good start.

-more device to device games. I'd like to see, for instance, a version of pong where each player only sees his own court so that the ball comes flying in from random directions. That would be wild!

How about Nokia allowing N-gage games to played on the 770/800. Is the 770/800 more powerful than the n-gage hardware?
