Greetings!

I opened this thread to ask for advide-guidance. Perhaps this facts could be of use for someone.

Soon I will be leaving on a 2 month trip; and as I'm traveling light, I want my n900 to fulfill all my communications / internet needs.
For some time I'm considering my N900 plus apps, to be an excelent tool when traveling. This are my known facts and the facts that I need some guidance.

Known Facts
> Turistic paper maps are obsolete when you have an offline gps navigator (Modrana ftw) Just load the maps of the zone when you have wifi and enjoy. I've done it in NY and worked wonderfully.
> Email and msn stuff (no clarification needed)
> Batery life will be more than enough as the gps is not used continually (you don't need to)
> With preparation you can make an spreadsheet file with all the info of hotels and stuff, telephone numbers etc.
> Offline wikipedia awesome tool. best 13 gigs spent on my phone. Do you want to get all the info about the thing that are you seeing? just check it out.
> Size: this is great, you don't need to carry even a netbook.

Facts that I need guidance :
> Mass photo uploader: the camera could get stolen, the cards can break. My idea: make the host mode work, and connect a SD card reader to my phone, and then upload photos to some host on the hotel using wifi).
Any thoughts about the viability of this? Also I will need some online service that allow me for easy uploading. Megaupload has a good limit, but I dont know if a loader could be feasible.

> Webbrowser compatibility for buying air/train tickets? I will try this, but I think as the browser is actually pretty good I think I will not have any issues.

Any advice or comment is welcome
