It's possible that Nokia made the change to a 3.5 inch screen in order to make this thing more pocket-able (and gain more acceptance.) I almost never saw a 800/810 review or reference that stressed the pocket-able factor. People always just lump them into the Tablet or MID category. In theory and in Nokia's marketing, the 800/810 were pocket-able devices, but in actual use I think they were just a little too big for most people's pockets.
So any phone that any company makes has to take into factor the size limitations.
Just lumping a GSM radio into a tablet doesn't a phone make.

- buy even though I don't really need it and to heck with any reviews.
It's not going to be available here in Trinidad and I don't have a data plan, but I'm still looking to get me one.

The question I ask myself, it's:
How much of the Maemo N900 will be Free and open Source?
Which parties will be proprietary?
-----------------------------------------
Edit: Remove the last question. My English is too bad to be understandable. So to avoid any misunderstanding of my remarks, I delete this.

I have two Nokia phones and both cause me a problem. I can't use them properly without wearing my spectacles. And I don't like to wear my spectacles all the time so I often end up using the menus by memory. The set-up has some options to change font sizes, but nothing that makes the whole interface bigger.
If the n900 has the capability to have a large-font interface, making it suitable for those of us with bad eyesight, I'll fight my way to the front of the queue.
(I've never checked if this facility exists on any smartphones, so may be being dumb here.)

They are probably at this very moment having a private party where they bath in money, drink Cristal, project maemo.org threads on wall and laugh evil laugh while rubbing their big sweaty bellies.

Did Nokia laugh at the community of Maemo?

Will I be able to do everything on the n900 using vnc from my computer? Including access to all the phone functions?
That could be a good selling point. People spend a lot of time navigating through menus on their phones to change settings. Surely they'd be blown away by being able to do it in a window on their computer.
