Nokia steps to evolve the N-Series tablets of "strictly for geeks" to "consumer friendly gadgets." The N810 - and recently launched N810 WiMax Edition - represent another step in that evolution, but this is still an Internet device for Geeks and non-mainstream consumers. To be fair, is the early adopter geek that make up Nokia N810 for the public.
