I agree, if that web site was just pathetic it would be an orders of magnitude improvement.

I keep wondering (and just not willing to spend the time to verify) if every minor point upgrade counts as another app. I also suspect the vast majority of apps are not there but spread around the net by people who want folks to be able to find and actually be able to get what they put out. Information as to what an app actually is usually might as well be completely missing.

While I love my N800, it has become a love / hate relationship with *frequent* thoughts of retiring it to the drawer of "interesting archival stuff". I'd feel guilty at this point selling it to someone or even giving it away (the SD cards are useful elsewhere :-).

Perhaps *IF* wifi was as common as stoplights then it might be useful. At least here tethering it to a cell phone is ungodly expensive and not going to happen for me.

What nokia has accomplished, as far as I am personally concerned, is to have squandered my VERY high opinion, product loyalty and respect right into the crapper. When I had to replace my cell here recently, I did not get another nokia phone just because of the sad, SAD handing of this tablet playground.

Could have been a stellar device, but nokia bufu'd it solidly and seems dedicated to keeping it up and trying to make it consistently worse.

Only saving grace with this thing is the community. I would have been, VERY sad to say, FAR better off with an EEE PC :-(.

And Yes, I wish I didn't feel this way.
