Great feedback. Great arguments.
Ever get the feeling this thread has run its course and since people have differing opinions, we will likely never have a device the really and truly hits the sweet spot and take over the universe.
How about this. At 3PM tommorrow I will make my final assessment and no one posts to this thread again. This way I get the last word on the thread that I started.
Hi. If yu want the last word then start your own damn thread and proclaim it as "having run its course" and that you want to make a final assessment and, guess what, I would respect that and not make anymore posts.
Then you can walk away feeling like a "big man" that had the last word too.
Otherwise, we are doomed to keep this up and make it the most replied to thread in such a short time, in history.
Now just get your last wrords in and then shhhhhhhhish after that.
"This thread is dead", procalimed the thread starter.
"Elvis has left the building".

Hate to leave this thread high and dry.
Here, "I'll give you a topic" (to start a thread about later on your own).
Start a thread on:
Cant think of antything at work now and have to finish something.
Anybody got any ideas on new topics for people to start new threads ?

Err.. this is a forum, there's no such thing like what your saying. Threads run their course until there's nothing left to say. And a thread's topic changes over time to different topics that somewhat relate to the main post (in this case a "convergence" device). For example, people have been talking about what should be in a convergence device or what featurees it should have. If a thread gets to far off course a moderator can then fork it though.

I'm not sure that you're quite "getting" the whole point of discussions. There need not be agreement nor a last word.. and, particularly useful, there might even be a third variable... the compromising solution which might suddenly leap up out of nowhere and savagely tear the problem in half.. usually born out of brainstorming sessions such as these.

Ahhh...
...as shot with another N96.
I also find it interesting how similar the N96 looks... not to the N95, but to another company's iDevice.

The USB interface wouldn't be suitable for that sort of thing--way too flimsy.
Also.. heh.. 'interference pr0n'.
