He's not the only one with dismal battery times on an n800.

Nokia made very clear a year ago that the "Internet Tablet" name ended with the N810/N810 WiMAX Edition. The Register, like a number of other online news sites, hasn't caught up with that yet.

which, i fear, makes it very unlikely that we'll see any more hardware with maemo that could be used as a tablet/MID.

they mean what they say.

How would you not be able to use the N900 as a tablet/MID? That's exactly what I'm planning on doing.

Can't handily dig up the Nokia link, so here's a blog mirror.

Quite possibly because the software hasn't been finalized and those figures may change, or else the marketing people are fail (as usual). Or both.

While 'internet tablet' name is gone maemo.nokia.org is promoting 'mobile computer' phrase. It is possible to release 'mobile computer' without GSM module.

Some rumors mention second maemo 5 device in Q1 2010. Now we can only guess if it will be even more top-of-the-line thing like mocked up e900 or desired by many 'upgrade for n800'. I find latter unlikely (unfortunately) but it is possible and not totally against current positioning of maemo on the market.

More loud thinking:

IMO second rumored device will be a phone. But not all hope is lost! It was confirmed (afair Peter@maemo himself wrote it so it is quite official) that Nokia will create something called 'Maemo Devices'. You don't create separate entity for one line of products.

Also one of the things which supposedly hurt IT in the past was brand Nokia with lack of phone possibilities. M100 by Maemo Devices should't be hurt by such association.

My dream: in Q1 we will see two devices based on maemo 5. One will be upgraded somehow n900. Second first product of new company, 'old school' internet tablet - maybe slightly bigger than oldies.

Why they put 3 line keyboards? When you try to press 1 button you end up pressing 2-4....

What i would instant buy this device is:

1) A good 8MP camera.
2) Not resistive screen
3) A version without the keyboard, full touch
