It's just a little too big for me - I'd have preferred something under 7" - but I could easily see it sitting in the lounge. Imagine a tie up with a sports broadcaster, you can be watching a game on the TV and have stats and other info streamed to your iPad. This kind of integration will happen, this will become a de facto "lounge" device to be used as an adjunct to watching the TV.
If I had an iPad it wouldn't leave the house - it will be interesting to see how many take the 3G option.

Interesting idea, and closer to working for me--but not there yet.
OK, I am listening to MP3s. My colleague wanders up, and I pull off the headphones. Do I stop and pause the music, negelecting my colleague? No. This leaves the music running. OK, following our conversation, I dive into work on project A -- not putting my headphones back in. They lie there on my desk, quietly buzzing away. (I don't generally crank my headphones.) Now when a travelling colleague who has only my mobile number in his blackberry rings me. I don't hear it, and project B has a sudden crisis what could have been avoided.
I think we've discovered a third option that some people might want. and the setting does need to be controllable.
The thing is that very few (any?) phones in my experience have ever played the ringtone out of the speakers when headphones are connected, but that is now - bizarrely - what the N900 does and I'm sure it caters to a few corner cases - your corner case - but the reality is that most people will have the headphones in their ears when the call comes in. You quickly learned that when you were no longer listening on the headphones you disconnected the headphones from the socket...

Honestly, why do people say that if there is no multitasking and no flash, it would fail. The iPhone is doing well, isn't it?
