I figured I'd reply to this thread, as it's the most recent on this reoccurring topic, instead of starting yet another one.

From day 1 of my plans on boarding the NIT wagon, I've concentrated on getting a N810. Just recently with all the talk about the N810's GPS not being that great, I've done some searching, and here in Canada the best deal I can get the N810 for about $413 (straight from Nokia using the SCENEZINE 15% off code). Otherwise, I can get a N800 for $230, a Holux M-1200 Bluetooth GPS for $70, and a iGo Stowaway BT keyboard for about $45, for a grand total of $345, about $70 less.

Here's the pro's I'm considering to weigh my decision:

N800: cheaper, two full-sized sd slots, FM tuner, GPS can be used by other bluetooth devices (like my phone).

N810: built-in keyboard, trans-reflective screen.

As I see it the biggest thing is the screen, which isn't comething an external add-on can replace. The N810's is supposed to be A LOT better. So I guess the main question I have it, just how much better is it? Especially for outside viewing? Are the colours & clarity any better or worse from one to the other?

Please help me to decide which way to go . TX
