Nokia doesn't seem to understand that as shipped the tablets are really "Web Tablets", not "Internet Tablets", and not even that well-rounded in the Web department. (Although I have to give them credit for Flash support.) Misnomenclature aside, making claims about a device's abilities that can only be attained by installing additional or 3rd party apps or developing/porting them yourself amounts to false advertising. If it doesn't have a capability out of the box, then don't advertise it... Unfortunately, just as Micro$oft and others have lowered people's expectations of the quality of OSs and apps, Nokia's "leadership" has enabled the new crop of "MIDs" coming out to not be as full-featured as they ought to be.
