GPS and a qwerty keyboard, just under the size of the current Tablet, the N800. The same pitiful little camera is present, and there has apparently been no change to the touchscreen, which is fine by me. The unit also comes with Tablet OS2008, which will be available for the N800 (just not sure when).

Ricky, the Symbian-Guru, has a good write up of it so far- definitely worth a pop-in over there to see what he has to say.

He mentions that it comes with a car holder, which is a nice feature. I've been looking for one for my N800, but until I spotted the one at Brodit.se (same group that makes THE best car mount for the N95) I couldn't really find any good solutions- at any rate, I think I still like the mount from Brodit

That being said- GPS is great, and the slide out qwerty is hot- but I'm not sure I'm going to rush out to get the device when it comes on the market- I've still got to upgrade my N95 :P If OS2008 wasn't gonna be available, I'm sure I'd be a lot more anxious to update to the N810- it's gonna be tempting enough with that qwerty slider.

Jonathan Green from Atmaspheric Endeavours has a 1 minute video worth a look to. He seems highly pleased with the build quality.
