Yeah, the price was a BIG point for me.

When I got my N800, play.com were selling them for £130!!

Nobrainer there.

It's actually pretty crap for what it's apparently 'supposed' to do (i.e. browse internet), but it's not a bad portable terminal and is a pretty good rival to my Zod2 and PSP

Because it's open, the software has a better chance of maturing, and software was why PalmOS got so loved, so this thing has a lot of potential!

I must say 'tho, it is very 'Linux', in the sense that you have to put a lot of hacking time in to get the damned thing working nicely.
Out of the box it was a right PITA.

Mmm... speaking of which, I wonder if I can get kismet and aircrack-ng working on here so I can use it for site pentesting instead of having to lug this damned Dell laptop around...
