"It's turning out to be a busy week for Nokia. Days in advance of NokiaWorld in Stuttgart, and a couple of days after lifting the curtain on its first netbook, Nokia has announced the Nokia N900, the successor to its almost four-year-old lineup of Internet Tablets. The N900 follows in the footsteps of the N810 with its slide out keyboard, but adds for the first time built-in 3G (Nokia calls it 3.5G) functionality, making the N900 the first Nokia tablet with the ability to go online without a WiFi connection or cellphone pairing. It's also the first Nokia device to run Maemo 5, Nokia's homegrown Linux distro."

Doesn't support multitouch, but I heard it supports gesturing, eg. spiral motion to zoom. Since it's a Linux device and has bluetooth, and many distros have support for Bluetooth HID, I would definitely imagine it supports input devices in some way, although how much tweaking you'd have to do to get it set up how you'd like (eg. how would a mouse work with this thing?) I don't know.
