Well, for the Nokie internet tablets the community help to develop the product.

iRex, for example, provided sources and SDK from day 1 when they released the DR1000 (yes, they did learn) and while some people are working on nice additions and tools, most functionality should still come with the product for pretty much all customers.

As I understand the SDK from iRex is limited in a way that makes it unnecessary hard to develop applications. Also the iRex device is to expensive to achieve a critical mass of developers.
