N800 tablet first Sprint WiMAX device?

Nokia says the N800 Tablet will be Sprint's first WiMAX compatible device. While not a phone technically, the current iteration of the device uses WiFi and fills the internet communicator part of the iPhone equasion, but only costs about $350. Nokia has always positioned the N800 to be open-source friendly, so VOIP clients for Gizmo Project and Skype already exist, creating a data-only demon device that can occasionally support voice. Worth it? We're not sure yet, but WiMAX rollouts make us excited.
