Why would a new iPod "kill" the n800? Does it come with a N800-sized 800x480 (or thereabouts) touch screen? Lots of software? 3party software? If so, it doesn't look anything like the iPods the kids are using today, for sure..

I really have nothing to add to this discussion, even though its Apple and N800 related. The N800 is a nerd toy. The iPhone is a geek toy.

The iPhone gets you laid. The N800 isn't a PDA, isn't a computer, its clearly an "Internet Tablet"!

But what it all really boils down to is this:


Sony Mylo forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No son, having a personality and good manners gets you laid.

At least when you're in the friend zone, they'll have the patience to have you show them how to dpkg and update your kernel on the N800.

"Hey baby, have you seen the new microb package on the 2007.32858-3453 OS? You know, I upgraded my N800 kernel to speed up my SDHC performance? Thats right, I got under the hood and made some sweet sweet modifications."

"Hold on baby, I need it to finish streaming the YouTube video before I can hit play, otherwise its a slide show."

I suppose it at least has flash, even though I disable it due to anemic performance.
