No, the Pandora does not have the right form factor. It has to be a tablet. The keyboard will only be used a small fraction of the time, so a slider is preferred. Nobody wants to have to flip open a clamshell while standing on the train.
Also, no 3G. A USB dongle is useless, as it's just another thing to lose, or get snapped off.
The phone has 256MB of RAM and a 1GHz processor, which do the job reasonably well, though the Anna interface will likely leave something to be desired for many smartphone users.
