OK so i have and love my n800, the gps and keyboard are right up my ally, i typically load up my 12" laptop and run streets and trips when traveling .. and the keyboard simply adds more functionality.. for more PC like applications.

One question I have is the GPS, is it good as MS street and trips for turn by turn directions? I know the lock in on the GPS is longer than most ., but will it lock in if I turn it on and start on my way.. will it lock in motion?

Also i know there has been talk of service fees for the GPS, is this optional.. AKA when i take it out of the box will i be able to use GPS with out service and get directions with out service .. and then decide later is i like it enough to pay for updates.. i typically get a new GPS package every year with MS streets and trips so maps are up to date.

From the videos I have seen the daylight screen is really quite good, any comments there would be great also. Its got to be better than a standard laptop screen, at least thats what I have seen from youtube videos.

Thx.. Hopefully ill get it for xmas if it will do what I need.
