Hi, after making 62 posts I have finally decided to get my very own tablet. I will eather get a N810 or N800. The outcome of this thread will help me make my mind up.

Pros of the N800
2 Full Size SD card slots
Cam that can face away from you (to take pictures)
FM Radio
PRICE

Pros of the N810
Keyboard
GPS (not a biggie)
80Mhz faster
smaller


I would be using it as my mp3 player (to replace my ipod) and to play Movies. I would also do the obvious Im, email, and web browsing, Reading PDF's (if i had the n800 and the camera was good enough i may take pictures)

Another think I am interested in is using the tablet in USB host mode or USB OTG. (what is the difference between host mode and OTG? Are they the same?) So i know that the N800 with OS 2007 could do host mode, can it do it in 2008? What about the N810?

If I got a N800 I would buy a 16GB SDHC Card (I already have a 4GB one) If i got a N810 I would buy a 6GB micro SDHC card (do they make them any bigger yet?)

So it really comes down to do I really want to spend ~$200 more to get a smaller, sexier device with a keyboard, but louse all my nice storage space? Everyday I change my mind about which one I want to get. I have had experience using a 770 and a tiny bit with a N800, but none with a N810.

So what should I get? Whats the status of USB host?
Thanks
