Arrrgh! Ye be cruel indeed!

A serious aside: TR I really appreciate your comments and efforts to explain and defend the corporation in spite of the withering criticism from certain members of this forum. I hope that the inside knowledge you possess is sufficient to keep you from getting too discouraged by the critics. I still feel the same way that I did when I bought the tablet, like our new user who declared it to be the 'greatest device ever'!

Yup. I feel the same way as the new guy. I had a 770 first but didn't use it much. I found it far too slow. The N800 however was a breath of fresh air. I'm looking forward to seeing what we get next. What will it be? Keyboard, gps, faster cpu, more memory, microsd slots, wimax, better camera, solid case?

There's so much they can do. It must be frustrating for Texrat knowing whatever he knows and not being able to say a thing until the official announcement. Although I do think Nokia could do the decent thing and tell us when such an announcement will take place.

Yeah me too. I think milhouse was fooled with the eyecandy. If he were given the iphone to use for one day... he would have exhausted all the possible uses in may be 1 day and then i think he would be craving for his n800.

Hmm... so it looks like it will have Firefox as the default browser this time around. Or am I just reading it wrong?

That's what I mean. Soon could be anything from 10 minutes to weeks. In fact in corp speak it could be next year. If it's Wednesday then Nokia should just tell us. It's an Internet Tablet with possibly 2 days to go until the big reveal. It's a little late for competitors (Are there any?) to steal the thunder now. "N810 to be officially launched on Wednesday at the Web 2.0 conference". That's all it would take to make a lot of people very happy.

I wants my slidey keyboard man. I'm like a junkie in need of a tech fix.

It's possible that both are available by default or maybe whoever was browsing had it installed and active.

Could we not turn this thread into a iPhone/N800 comparison thread? Keep it for N810 drooling

Nooo.... not fooled, impressed. As to exhausting it's possibilities, you are probably right, but for many people it does what they want it to do, nothing more nothing less. And isn't that the point for a mass consumer device? To satisfy the needs of the many, and not the (insignificant) few?

If the next NIT is to go mainstream (3rd time lucky) it can't continue to satisfy only the handful of devotees that frequent this forum.

EDIT: Sorry Tuxedosteve!
