I know Tigerdirect has sold out, I see buy.com has them, jr.com, datavis.com, and etronics.com. Not too mention amazon and Nokia.com but nokia still wants like 270~$! Keep looking

Slight diversion but....are we sure the N800 isn't already equipped for WiMax. Didn't the FCC filing not an odd freq range plus wasn't there a mention of another hidden goody in the N800? Just a thought.

Ok, Thanks for the Encouragement everyone. I'm actually not afraid of buying one of these used ones, as they are both local (to me) sales. And I get to haggle. I just need to get an IT already! I've been thinking about for a whole year and a half! :o

I´m a Portuguese IT and i just buy a n770 on ebay for £109 , if the price was the same that the 800 is now , probaly i still stay without this gadget , but for this price lets go !!! lol
Another thing i program and i´m in various projects in python and c , and i´m just whaiting for the n770 arrive at home to start analize the apis and libraries to compile some programs that i´m going to put over the n770 , is sad that nokia don´t comercialize this models over portugal .
The nokia that i buy is still closed in box with seal from nokia , the seller allready sell 6 and just have 4 , more cheap = more users = more open source.
Sorry about the typos and i hope to be welcome to this comunity :D

That's possible, but I think highly unlikely. I don't think Nokia would have included an (as yet) unusable antenna well over a year before deciding to actually use it. Yeah, I know the FM radio was "found" by curious minds a while after the device was on the market, but that spectrum has been around a lot longer.

I don't know of any other goodies that the N800 might hold either, as I don't have one, but Nokia has been good at keeping secrets and throwing us surprises from time to time. ;)
