Just great. Having a complete computer in your pocket enables you to do unexpected things. The decision of using Debian as a base gives you the choice of thousads of appplications to be used, although Nokia could provide a tidier way of organising the community apps.
It works great as a SIP phone, too. And I don't regret that it doesn't have mobile telephony included, I prefer them separate, and also the Nokia can control the telephone with bluetooth.
Rating: - Good internet tablet, but not a PIM
Some random thoughts.
Great price for some nice hardware. The fit and finish is great.
The device is a good internet tablet, but does not have strong PIM functionality. Additional community software is helping in this area.
If Linux is your thing, there are a lot of additional packages out in the community that really expands the functionality.
Wifi and tethering to Nokia N75 work great for connectivity anywhere. Very smooth.
Built in email client has some performance issues with a large Google account via IMAP. The latest update of the tablet has helped. By the way, make sure you flash the most current firmware right out of the box.
GPS is cool, but the maps are OK for rural America. Still looking for the "killer app" that uses this feature. The Turn by turn functionality is an additional subscription to the built in software.

This device is amazing. Bigger screen and better resolution than an Iphone or Ipod Touch (4.1" and 800 x 480 pixel resolution vs. Iphone/Ipod Touch's 3.5" and 480 X 320). I did a comparison of this tablet vs. my friends Iphone. While searching popular sites like nytimes, espn, cnn, I immediately noticed how I do not need to zoom in on text because I can read it clearly vs. an Iphone where you are forced to "pinch" the screen and increase the text size. The higher resolution makes the web sites much nicer to browse, and instead of touching the screen and getting prints and grease on it, you use a "stylus" which is held within the device to do all the tapping for you. And let's not forget the pull out QWERTY pad. The biggest plus of them all. Also contains a hinge that pulls out so you can easily place the tablet on a flat surface if you want to show others photos, websites, etc. And it plays videos from youtube with no hitches.
The only negative is that this is not a phone, nor can you always access the internet. You will either need to find a wifi hotspot or tether the tablet to your cell phone via bluetooth (a heads up, you will need a data plan with your cell phone provider to do that). If you are totally against carrying a phone and this tablet around, then maybe this device is not for you. But I'll happily place the tablet in my pocket just for the superior internet experience it provides. Plus wifi spots are everywhere, and this device is fantastic at finding them.

I live in Germany so no iphone for me, but I love this Nokia. I bought it to use as a PDA but the internet feature is great. I'm writing this review on it at a cafe in Ireland. It picks up networks quickly and the d/l speed is great. The screen is beautiful and the touch sensor works well. The chassis is beautiful as well and the keyboard is big enough for my fat fingers. The build quality is excellent and the buttons are useful and laid out well. The battery lasts plenty long enough (6-7 hours straight use) and charges quickly.
The only things I don't like are that the flip stand is a little sharp on the edges and irritates my fingers a bit when I hold it and flash games can't keep a good framerate (it comes with some good games that work well though).
