Depending on the pants, I can fit my N800 in them, but it's not with loads of room to spare, and even in my side pocket, I have to remember to take it out when I sit down, lest the extra tightness cause my pants to split like the Incredible Hulk.

I envy those of you who have such copious amounts of space in their pockets

Boy Genius Report's article seems to question why they would bother making it: "Anyone excited for it or are we looking at another IT destined to be lost in a retail wasteland?"

NokiaExperts.com says that they like the idea of the tablets but haven't liked using them in the past due to the sluggishness of the processor; and asks if any of their readers actually use them.

I would say as a rule that world travelers do not put their wallets in their back pockets. I was in Barcelona for a few months and had close brushes with pickpockets trying to get my wallet in my FRONT pocket.

In my recent two-week cruise, to London, Amsterdam, Berlin, Helsinki, St. Petersburg, Tallinn, Stockholm and Copenhagen, there were serious pickpocket warnings for each city.

So, after my Palm Centro and keys and walllet, I don't have room for a Nokia anything in my pants pockets.

Then I really question the decision to shrink the display, as it looks like the current sized screen could still fit (based on the amount of space between the screen and the edge of the device).
