So its basically an iphone with a keyboard just like the samsung, htc touch pro2, etc. Well, at least most of these new smartphones now are going to be 3.5" screen standard instead of the old tiny screens on large qwerty keyboards we are used to.

and the screen is finally flush - in the end the screen shrink probably won't be that noticeable

Uh-oh. This thing's BL-5J battery is 1320 mAh. N810's BP-4L is 1500 mAh.
I guess it's only for use in the mornings...

Luckily, there were indications (possibly last year's summit???) a while back that Nokia was planning for Maemo 5 to be more of a family than any single device. If said information were true, it could be that they were planning an initial RX-51 release followed by a RX-71 (which might be larger, faster, or who knows, even keyboardless).

), while at the top end it'll use slightly more (PowerVR, ISP added on).Throw in a bunch of extras like GSM, accelerometers and FM radios, and you've pretty nicely eliminated the power advantage offered by the reduction in screen size.
So, yeah, I'd say it's safe to assume that battery life is going to be worse. Yet more hardware idiocy by Nokia (that "kickstand" is going to suck) . . . bleed the enthusiasm out, Nokia, bleed it out.

I'm surprised more isn't being said about the "NSeries" branding. The N800 & N810 may have technically had the "N" in their names but were treated like bastard step children or ignored all together by sites.

I'm wonderin' if this will change with the "Rover".

2)N8x0 have software OpenGL. I am sure someone will hack together a OpenGL ES to OpenGL driver thingy.
3)Yeah, there should be flash. Its literally one aspect that defines the tablets.
