I agree with everybody here that it fits your needs perfectly - I recently got one (N810) for myself and my wife. We have a 2-year-old daughter running around, and it's been really useful. Actually, from my perspective, it's been almost "too useful" for my wife as she never opens up her laptop anymore and just uses the N810...meaning that I never really get to use it. And this of course means that I have a get another for myself . Oh well, just ordered it. So we'll have two of these things in a moment. We both love it, for most of our everyday computing needs it's simply a great replacement for a computer. And the N810 of course also doubles as a GPS navigation system on the road.

So, if you'll be using it a lot for chatting / emailing, I would recommend the N810 and not the N800, though. I know it's more expensive but after having used both of them (brother-in-law has the N800), I really prefer the little retractable keyboard for typing. You can see the whole chat screen or e-mail when you type (N800 covers up most of the screen with the on-screen keyboard when typing) and it's quick to just push it back in when your kids go crazy and tennis balls start hitting the TV. The N810 is also a tiny bit smaller and easier to put in a pocket than the N810 so if the price difference is not a big deal and espcially if you'd find the GPS features useful as well, I suggest you get that. At least our daughter doesn't seem too interested in the N810 even with the keyboard. It's just too small for her
