I really want to like the N810. Really I do!

This weekend I have been using my N810 and comparing it to my N800 with OS2008. I'm surprised by my reactions. Here are some:

• The N810 is heavier. All that metal makes it a little heavier in my hand and a little less convenient to toss around.
• The N810 is a little smaller. Mostly, it's less wide. For me, this makes it harder to hold onto.
• I keep putting my thumb on the ambient light sensor. I usually hold with my left hand and use the stylus with my right. My thumb naturally blocks the light sensor and the screen automatically darkens.
• The D-pad thing really annoys me. When I'm using FBReader to read a book, I'm used to rotating with the DPad. Now I have to fiddle with a menu or open the keyboard.
• Displaying menus when apps are in fullscreen mode requires the slideout keyboard. Pop any application into full screen mode -- say, the Web browser -- and you can't access the app menu without (a) taking it out of fullscreen mode or (b) opening the keyboard just for the menu key.

Yes, these are little niggles. But they are niggles that are not present on an N800 with OS2008. The menu point above is especially annoying. I can't even exit an application without using the keyboard to pull up the menu (I know: I could use the HOME key to exit using the list of applications). As I wrote in another thread, I don't like the mapping software. So I'm left with an internal GPS and a slideout keyboard as the only benefits to using the N810. They might be good, but for me, I don't use them all the time -- not near enough to balance the items above.

And the N800 has removeable memory cards that are more standard.

So I'm struggling here to choose the N810 over the N800. Maybe I should just stop whining!

What do others of you think? Are there other reasons to really move to the N810? Am I whining too much?
