Hi,
I picked up a used N810 from eBay a couple of months ago (for about $100 US) after seeing it mentioned in another forum. I have to say, I really like the device, and having Linux as the OS really appeals to the geek in me. I dislike the "locked down" feel of the iPhone and iPad, even though all the cool kids have one. The community here is great (even though quite a few have moved onto the N900), and I'm running mutli-boot from the MMC, CSSU, Diablo Turbo and the Diablo5 theme.
Here's what I don't like about the system: its a bit under-powered for todays software and Internet sites. The keyboard is nice, but not very comfortable for extended use (the top row is too close to the edge of the screen slider.)
I tend to use it mainly for Internet surfing, some emulation, occasional email, the occasional quick game. I have Maemo Mapper which looks nice, but don't use a GPS app very often, I don't use it for music either.
