I just want to point out (as I did above) that there really aren't many mature, big-screen, hand-held video playback devices at the N800's current price point, and if they do non-transcoded video acceptably (the sub $300 units seem to usually require transcoding), they can't play Quake 2 or make video Internet calls.
