back to this thread .... been hectic here.<br>
<br>
My device is pre-release and has a slip case which I believe will be included.<br>
<br>
Ogg is not included for codec licensing issues... <br>
<br>
Form factor is excellent as is the build and it will apparently get a bit
better over the course of the pre-release period along with the updates to the
OS for release. <br>
<br>
Non-Powered USB...can't charge - not sure about keyboard, but I assume not and
it's the micro-USB variety.<br>
<br>
MiniSD gives you up to 10GB storage with the internal ... US / <st1:country-region
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Canada</st1:place></st1:country-region> maps are
preinstalled in much (think it's around1.8GB) of the 2GB internal and
non-removable card which is how you get 256 free there.<br>
<br>
Wimax is next year... I've been told it's "later."<br>
<br>
No FM radio either... <br>
<br>
<br>
Anything else - I'll likely have an overview blog post up in the next 24-48
hours once i get back to NY have time to think it out a bit with some extended
use. <br>
<br>
If there's something specific you'd like to know, please let me know... <br>

<br>
Actually, it is about being open and free. Nokia promotes the tablet <br>
as an open platform, and is using huge amounts of free software as the<br>
basis for its product. To ignore ogg-vorbis support, which *is* an<br>
important feature for many of us (and far more valuable, to *me*, than<br>
WMA and AAC support), and is pretty much the only free-as-in-freedom<br>
codec, is a bit of a slap in the face.<br>
<br>
Some of us do have political agendas, such as promoting the use of free<br>
software. That Nokia uses our software (as is their right, according to <br>
our licenses), but then promotes non-free codecs/software, is a bit sad.<br>
<br>

The irony is that Bill Gates claims to be making a
stable operating<br>
system and Linus Torvalds claims to be trying to take
over the <br>
world. -- seen on
