iirc, the n810 is still step 2. And the steps are neither software nor hardware based, again iirc. Basically, its some kind of nebulous plan that by now may well have been altered...

Would you have a link to where Nokia talked about '1-5'?
Sometime around last november / december.
After the big announcement (or in it ?) of maemo 5, I think.
Check the threads in ITT where upcoming, and then announced, maemo 5 was discussed.
EDIT:

to be honest, i am starting to suspect it was just a saying to indicate that nokia was in for the long haul when it came to the tablets, rather then some side project they would drop at the first moment of trouble.
kinda like those 5 step programs to get something done with ones life...
(not the most confidence building comparison maybe, but still...)

However, it's been made clear that market conditions have changed; and any "5 step plan" conceived in 2005 has not survived unchanged into 2009.

Historically Qt has proven to be faster than GTK+ on slow and limited hardware, as example see the former Qtopia distro in OpenMoko. But of course a lot of people disagree with that point

It's too bad that nokia will break compatibility with it's previous tablets with this new release.

I think that someone in this thread once estimated that there were a million tablet owners out there, or some similarly giant number. That seemed unlikely to me at the time, but -- does anyone know how many unique visitors have come to this site, approximately? I doubt if a million have.

On top of that, how many tablet owners do you think have gone to the nokia.com site? Probably a lot more than have come here. But, most likely, still much less than the actual customer base.
