Be sure to browse the maemo site to look for interesting apps to download when it arrives..

Also, I'd like to take umbrage at those who say the IT is just a toy. I'm a traveling software consultant and often do the "6 cities in 5 days" routine, and my N800 is a godsend. With the iGo Stowaway Bluetooth keyboard ( I bought 2 at Amazon for $30 each) and a wifi connection (or my Bluetooth data plan) I can use logmein.com (for FREE) to connect to my home or laptop machines and work directly on them without the requirement of carrying around all that additional weight.

Instead of a heavy laptop, with the bag and associated power brick, I now board planes with a small shoulder bag containing my IT and associated kit (keyboard, charger and spare batteries) - and it doesn't have to get separately scanned by TSA!!

Of course it's great to have a few sdhc cards packed with music, books and movies to pass the time between clients, so the IT running UKMP (or Kagu or Canola) is a great media player too!!
