FWIW, I've always considered the N800 (and other devices with two slots) simply as a device with an SD slot and upgradable internal storage (as opposed to one with an SD slot and a harddisk, e.g. Palm Lifedrive. Or fixed flash, as the N810). That's what I like: Upgradable/replacable internal storage. And it frees up the "real" SD slot to always be available for whatever I want to momentarily use it for.

Anyway, I agree with the Gen.: Let's wait until we know better.
