It appears I spoke too soon. After playing around with the N800 for a good hour, powering it off several times and bringing it back to life by plugging it in the N800 decided to not power on at all again, not responding to anything I did. It's out of my hands now and on it's way back to buy.com via UPS. It looks like I'll be without for a couple more weeks. Hopefully the replacement will function as it ought to - it really sucks that such a neat device is being plagued with these kinds of problems.

Agreed. If you paid $200-500 for something then it should work as advertised. If it doesn't, then either it's made by Microsoft or you deserve your money back.
