Apple may well be the VHS of this world, but we all know what happened to the superior Betamax product. People WANT Apple products. Ordinary people, not techy or geeks, are lusting after Apple products, whether they need them or not - they just want them. That kind of demand is priceless, and it rapidly leads to third-party support and a great eco system.
Nokia NITs don't have that kind of consumer demand, so while the NITs may be superior in several respects most people just don't care - they know what they want and it's an Apple!
Highlighting possible defects in the Touch or criticising Apple for having a great marketing department is not going to help Nokia in the future - they need to improve their marketing while also offering products that Joe Public desires and will pre-order to acquire.
If Nokia need to hype their products then so be it - commence the hype. Don't hold back on those secrets you're keeping!!!!

What do you use your camera for? Skype? Oh, wait, can't do that. Oh, how about Google talk? Nope, they killed that. Crappy photos? Check! Even worse video? Check! I'll stick to the camera on my phone, or the digital Rebel I carry almost all the time. Once again, everybody, including me, is comparing apples to oranges.

In many ways the N800 is already dead. As for the iPod Touch (the iTouch is a different device and not made by Apple), it will blow the N800 away with it's browsing and multimedia capabilities. The N800 will still have bluetooth and I/O over the Touch and thus be able to either access a phone or be a phone. Apple does not want anyone calling anyone on their Touch.
As for software, if Apple includes the Mac mail and calendar systems then goodbye Nokia.

Well it already sync your contacts. If it's the same as what the iPod does now, it's the full contact info, not just name and email.

I'm betting on Nintendo or Sandisk. Or a merger between the two...
