Nokia Sparrow MID due in 2011

Alright, well, 2011 is an eternity away in tech years and the image you see above is just a mock-up, but if you're looking for something new and far away from realization to dream about, then how about a purported ARM Sparrow-based Nokia MID with a "multi-slide keyboard" that has different layouts/keys depending on the direction it's slid? The device is also rumored to have raised diamond-shaped keys, a tilting display, and a widget-based UI. By 2011, it should also be able to walk the dog, transform into an airplane, and raise your children. But that's just speculation.

In the meantime, I'll "settle" for a next-gen Maemo 5 Nokia Internet Tablet.
