I had the good fortune to play with a pre-production model yesterday.
In a word - awesome. It's perfect for HA use. First rate browser,
seems resonably snappy, nice UI, excellent battery life for its size
(3 or 4hrs continuous use, 7 days+ standby), and of course it's
reflashable and open source, so you can tinker to your heart's
content. I really hope this is a success - it's a brave of Nokia to
launch something like this...
