I think this is a very well rounded device.

1. It has a REAL headphone jack. Stereo speakers!

2. It will have U.S. 3G bands.

I and it comes pre packaged with an 8GB card.

I'm not going to be naive enough though to hope for AT&T to pick it up, bc AT&T is addicted to offering they're customers txt'g phones. But refuses to carry the very best that Nokia has to offer.
We might be lucky, AT$T is in on this symbian opensource thing, might carry over to something like the 5800. Nice looking phone too, makes the TM G1 look like a toilet bowl brush.

This phone is dead before it even hits the market...

"It uses touch-resistance (not touch-capacitance) technology for the touch screen and haptic feedback."
It needs to use a resistive touch screen in order to work with a stylus, which is all but necessary for Asian languages.

I would prefer a capacitive screen too, though. ☚ī¸

I think manufacturers underestimate the impact this has on user experience.
