I work at Nokia, I know someone who works in the group that works on
this product. I have no inside knowledge of anything having to do
with this product since I am in an entirely different division.

I've seen this thing and it's a very good looking device. Really
sharp screen and fun to use. I think I may be able to get one of
these to play with and I'd be glad to work with someone who is
smarter than I am about skins to make a perfect skin for it.
Anyone up for it?

Wow! That's exactly what I've been (well, still am) waiting for!
And I wanted to develop this myself once I had won the bingo
millions :-)
pros: runs embedded linux, looks to be < $350, >4" display,
touchscreen, quick boot
cons: comes loaded with Opera as a web browser (major bummer)
I love Opera! What's your problem about it?
Has anyone found a similar niche device that looks like it fits this
As I said I have been looking for something like this. What imho
comes closest might be the Simpad. But it's EOLed and on ebay still
more or (almost as) expensive then these 350$
ViewSonic AirDisplays (big, Microsoft-shackled).
Do they still exist?
