Very tempting to pranksters and cyberterrorsists, and Nokia's board would be lucky just to end up ruined afterwards, rather than in Guantanamo.

Exactly. That post was just silly. At least one Nokia exec has acknowledged that they would be crazy to not consider SIM in a tablet.

DoS attacks??? Guantanamo??? Please. :rolleyes:

Yes it does- A flash memory based one. It would difficult for it to hold any music if it didn't.

Right now the largest capacity iTouch is 32GB- which AFAIK makes it equal to maxing out the n800 with 2 of the largest SDHC cards available. Us n810 owners are currently stuck at a little bit more than 2GB (counting the 2 internal cards) + an 8GB mini or micro SDHC card.

umm.. two of the largest SDHC cards available would be 2 x 32GB = 64GB, twice the storage of the largest iTouch. ...as of this posting. I wouldn't be too terribly surprised to see 64GB cards available by 1Q/2009

Quake runs in 400x240 with hardware pixel doubling, screen is 800x480? 4x the space you need to update with 20 fps max... Nah, without acceleration, forget it.

No. Whereas that is a drive, it is not a hard disk.

IIRC, theres a whole desktop and thousands of applications in gtk.

Why is it a drive, since there are no disks for it to drive?

OK, it is storage. I was trying to not be too picky
