They've already got something very much like that in the works; see the whole Tube/iSlayer/5800 thread for more details, flames, and wild speculation...
The keyboard version can't be too far behind, I'd think.

A) Yes.
B) No.
(That's a no because I sometimes forget it on the charger. I can't afford to forget my N800, so I check more carefully for it.)

A). No
B). Yes
C). Many 'smartphones' (palm, wm, blackberry, symbians) already provide features from A & B in similar\smaller formfactor.. I think we can (or are close to being able to) have our cakes and eat it too, nowadays.

LOL... I wish.

Here in the US, operators tend to beat the stuffing out of us. I just found out that in Russia it's just the opposite. Now there's a model I'd like to copy!
