Here is the catch. I am the first person to approach them about developing a port for the n800/n810. As such, there would be some effort required to port the code and customize it for the device.

Here is the question I pose to all of you. Would you be willing to purchase a quality navigational software for the nIT at as low a price as possible? How much would you be willing to pay realistically. I am trying to figure out if there is anyway I can pay to have this ported through my own software development company in order to bring it to the market. I figured out my dead break even cost would be $52.30 for the first 10,000 licenses. Cheaper in larger numbers.

This is not the result I was looking for, but that is what it is for now. Sorry to disappoint anyone. Let me know what you think about this.
For something equivalent to the Tomtom I currently have on my palm, I'd be willing to pay $100 dollars or so.

I'd be wanting a pretty polished product for that kind of money, though.

For something equivalent to Wayfinder, I'd be willing to pay in that 50 dollar price range.
