Err... there is a protector (two, actually) on the screen so don't get carried away just yet :)

Sorry for the earthquakes this morning, boys and girls.

It takes a lot to make a 350 pound man jump up and down... but the RX-51 was more than enough to make it happen.

Ugh... gotta find some way to get to Maemo Summit. Gotta.

But of course that was obvious when there was the HUGE discussion and back-and-forth about the fact that it was including a phone in the new tablet - which to many users was a dilution of the geek target audience. Nokia is trying to sell to the most common market denominator - the ordinary user - and that is OK.

I'm going to go the opposite way... it looks clunky and it has a smaller screen than the NIT's.

A forward facing camera... et al. If used, then will get my attention. The keyboard, I'm not a fan of, no d-pad... definitely a loss to me. None of those were surprises, but seeing them now... I'm not too enthusiastic. But the space being under the thumb... I can live with that. In fact, that's a plus.

I just know that the price will be insane unsubsidized. $700 (almost) for the lesser powered N97. This will be a wallet-buster.

But the 5mp camera? That's one of the biggest pluses.

Not only the 5MPix camera, but as far as I know this should serve as a good video camera as well. I have been waiting long time to find a "all in one" device that also takes decent video. (I'm tired of carrying a separate video camera during our vacation trips etc...)

You are still waiting?? Do you mean "you" as a community member?

Re: What we do realistically see in the RX-51
 

I missed my chance to own an N93i - I wanted it for that purpose... good camera with video.

But as it stands, it needs to also support codecs that I use. And Ogg Theora is not one I use. I'm just saying.

Re: What we do realistically see in the RX-51
 

Exactly... I have been kicked out from "the know" people several months ago... Therefore I can comment and speculate a lot more freely than before.

Any one else notice that the video out cable only has 2 connectors? Video and one sound channel. I would've liked to see stereo out instead of just mono. Great for presentations, maybe watching a movie on a lower end hotel TV. Or if they are thinking presentations, will the video out even support a decent frame rate for watching movies?
