But none are close to the device I describe, nor are any likely to be, because it's a different goal. For my everyday phone/PDA I want something small for my pocket that I fill with my choice of apps and data. While a tourist I want something that guides me, helps me get the knowledge of a native in a foreign place. So it will be bigger, so it can have a bigger screen, a better keyboard etc. (I should not say never, because there are technologies that might put big screens in small devices like retinal projection, and really good speech recognition may eliminate that keyboard need.)

But either way, the E61 is years away from being what I want here. The hardware's really a small part. This is more a software and database project, and a recognition that since the tourist is willing to pay a lot, you don't have to pick and choose on the data -- you can have it all.
