FYI, lack of OpenOffivce is one reason I am (probably) sending my n810 back. Lack of a decent PIM with desktop sync is the other. I bought this to *replace* my Palm T5, not so I could have *another* gadget to carry around.

If I had OpenOffice *or* the syncing PIM apps, I could find some workaround for the other and live with it. Lacking both pretty much kills the n810's usefulness for me.

And no, the Garnet VM is not a usable workaround: not having a way to set the Hotsync user name makes that a no-go right from the start, aside from there being no way for the Garnet VM to access the n810's non-VM memory (and vice versa).

Okay, so I am rambling. Long story short, being able to edit and sync OpenOffice text documents (which I have been able to do on my T5 for more than a few years now, using Blue Nomad's Wordsmith) is, in my opinion, a requirement for any palmtop computer in the 21st century.
