I don't think IPad bites into the netbooks area because of the keyboard (assuming you speak of keyboard netbooks). Also because most of the people I know that own netbooks they do so because they can also continue work and "work" at home, as in, they need a similar OS.

Also, at 500$ and battery life as it is, it's not going to bit too much into Kindle.

Guess I'm one of those people underestimating iPad (for now). If it goes cheaper, it could be the bedside companion you speak of. For now, I think not. Also, cheap Apple? Hm.

I don't like netbooks because they're slow and you need a table to use them properly. Especially in airplanes. Slate form factor is easier to carry, lighter and they manage well most places; You can put them where magazines can go.

Granted I can't do all of my sys admin stuffs, because iPad aren't jailbroken yet (yea yea), but right now I got ssh, rdp and vnc on it already to do 90% of what I need. If I need to do plenty of text entry/commands, I just prop the slate up on the table and flip open my bluetooth keyboard (stowaway full sized foldable keyboard).

I'm not saying it's superior in all cases to netbook, but it's a very versatile form factor. And the amount of functionalities they crammed in it (digital compass, accelerometer, great doc manipulation, etc) means it can go places where netbooks don't.

imho this is a form factor to watch.

Then you have one of the most advanced handsets of the market already. It has its faults? It does. If they are too much for you, sell it, and get something that fits you better.

I don't see Nokia rising up in market share until it innovates something spectacularly fresh, then launches it on Symbian^3 and Harmattan and have people buying phones only thinking which Nokia to buy, and not about other brands.

Ok... do you buy mine for 599€?
When do you read "step 4 of 5" when reserving it last year?
I only read "the future is NOW", and I believe YOU read the same page I read.
Very very simply: I want the thing they SOLD me...

Doesn't support the 3G frequencies of my country (I have a couple of friends that bough it despite that...). Why don't you eBay it?

Anssi Vajonki, one of Nokia's VPs said it himself when the N900 was introduced in Nokia World. It was quoted in many places, and even with some dissapointement here.

I only read "the future is NOW", and I believe YOU read the same page I read.

I read that it had a resistive screen but that Maemo 6 was going to be capacitive. That it didn't have Qt as native. That it was Step 4 of 5. I read reviews saying it lacked features like MMS and portrait mode. Etc etc.

Despite all that, the N900 still does more than many of its competitors.
