I don't know how real the video is, but it looks like Dell has found the Internet Tablet form factor, after Nokia lost it with the n900. n810 turning over in his grave.

I can't call that "what the N900 should have been". Who wants a phone that big, except maybe on their desk?

However, I *can* see it as what the "N820" should have been...

Yeah, but the nXXX series was never supposed to be a phone in the first place. Nokia has smartphones, what was the point of cannibalizing the nXXX series and releasing a Maemo based n97?

No keyboard. Must have missed that "little" deal-breaker.

A mobile computer with no keyboard? LOL

You never used the N800?

Pity. It doesn't need a keyboard.
