Are there any drawbacks I should know about before purcasing the N810?

Neither the N800 nor the N810 has a usable text editor (in my opinion) -- nothing like Palm DocsToGo or the applications available for mobile windows. The iPhone doesn't either. The implementation of the Palm Garnet OS for the Nokia DOES allow one to use DocsToGo, but syncing that information with a computer is quite problematic (it does't work for me). One hopes the next implementation of Garnet for the Nokia will allow access to the files it creates. Meanwhile, I keep carrying around my Palm. My question: why in the world is there no decent word processing app for the Nokia? Abiword still doesn't work. In any case, if you need the Nokia for word-processing, you'll have to wait. Its browser is far inferior to the iPhone, but its screen is much better and it's a fine device for reading ebooks using FictionBook. It also does a good job showing pictures, though the built-in program is wretched.
