What if instead of using directional keys that Nokia took a page from what Palm did with the Pre and made a gesture area that supports directional-pad like movements, and can be combined with the accelerometer to do even more "physics-bending" movements with the device. Would that make half of you (those that want a physical directional pad) happy?

Bad for gaming. Just keep the damn arrows.

It's better to demand (ask nicely?) for the product to be designed to be fully usable without activating the cellular portion\without a SIM inserted.
Last I checked... a cell phone radio version of anything never was as cheap as a $15-25 difference. I'll be damned before I buy a device with a huge markup just to have a radio sitting inside like an throbbing, sharply infected appendix I wish I could have removed.

@danramos: it's what COST them in parts per unit. How much higher they would SELL with the addition of said parts, is a different matter
Sure, there's the additional cost of integration, firmware\software development and whatnot..

In the end, as the person who'll be paying the asking price, what difference does that make? I'd rather be without the flipping piece of crap I'll never use that's raised the cost up so high.

@danramos: think there's a big enough market for a cellular-less tablet to sustain its lifecycle on its own?

I would definitly say yes if they were willing to market it differently. Compare it to a ZuneHD which is getting alot of buzz right now and it beats the pants off it in functionality. Hell, market it against the ipod touch. Do the same parallel marketing that apple did. One with phone one without. ipod touches sell pretty well.
