Mobile Review has posted a detailed first look at the Nokai RX-51 / N900 Maemo tablet.

The N900 is a side-slider built on the ARM Cortex-A8 CPU. It features the same camera as the Nokia N97 plus a lens shutter. It has 32 GB of internal memory and a microSD slot that is hidden under the rear panel which supports memory cards up to 32 GB. The handset takes a standard 1320 mAh battery onboard which can be recharged over USB using a microUSB jack. TV out is also supported.

The device features Nokia's next generation operation system, Maemo. Mobile Review has posted a massive photo gallery of hardware and software images. A few select images are included below.

Mobile Review also shares their initial impressions of the device...

Due to variety of visual effects, smooth transitions and decent reaction time of the touch screen (which is a significant improvement over the Nokia N97), the N900 feels more like the Apple iPhone. At the same time its UI looks nothing like that of the iPhone - it's just different, but eye-candy nonetheless (maybe somewhat similar to HTC's products). Everyone who had a chance to play with it noted that it didn't look like any other Nokia-branded device, yet it was an enjoyable experience overall.

Even the browser is pretty stable, and it supports flash, video and applets.
