Wired has a Nokia N900 in house (while I’m still waiting for my review unit, if it ever shows up at all) and they’ve given it a brief ~ 3 minute review. For an American publication to say that $650 is a bargain for a mobile device is shocking enough to raise my eyebrows. Also note how the reviewer refuses to call this thing a smartphone, sticking to the ancient “Internet Tablet” moniker, a term that Nokia Maemo Devices Vice President Ari Jaaksi has always secretly hated, going so far as to say that “a tablet is something you eat when you are sick”.

Identity Crisis aside, check out this video while you count down the days, weeks, and if you’re Swedish the months, until the N900 ships:
