Agreed, have been toggling with the zoom controls to get a font size that I can read, and my eyes are pretty damn good.

I find the Touch has a pretty good battery life, compared to my n800.

Size-wise, I'd much rather go on a power walk with my Touch.

For watching videos/ looking at pics, NIT has bigger screen, but I wouldn't call the Touch screen crappy by any regard. The update for OS 2008 seems to have improved video quality alot though.

When I pull out the NIT it is more for Skype talk, quick surfing and maybe recording sound bytes (I am a music teacher). I also like the speakers for quick playback of stuff I record. It is also good for shooting a quick e-mail or 2, or sending pics.

My Touch is more for music listening, a bit of vid watching and the occasional browse on the net or YouTube. It is good for wijacking and checking Yahoo Mail when standing at a bus stop too. You can also log contacts and calendar stuff too which is more then I can say for the n800. (I find the contacts stuff included very clunky and unwieldly... I still marvel that a fine device like a NIT can have no real calendar apps included... but it doesn't bug me that much as I use my phone for that)

I think both are very exciting gadgets that have a lot of potential for improvement. I would dare to say that both will evolve in some astonishing directions, and that one may even feed off the other to a certain degree in terms of developing products that are all encompassing and efficient.

At least I hope that is what happens...
