Dear all,
I am considering one of these units for my work and have some questions about the N810.
Purpose,
Use N810 for remote system admin., of boxes in work while I am on-call.
Questions about functionality,
i) Keyboard. Does this have these keys on the buildin keypad:
~ | ' ` ! " $ % ^ & * ( ) {} [] <> /\
ii) Keyboard: will the micro-USB connector allow a keyboard or mouse to be connected? If not, not too much of a prob since there are BT kbds, but these drain more electricity.
iii) Is there a USB or SDIO card-to-100BaseT/RJ45 (for connection in the office ; no wireless available)
iv) Is Is there a USB or SDIO card-to-GPRS/EDGE available,
v) Is there a USB or SDIO card-to-SERIAL-PORT available,
vi) Will the Bluetooth PAN or DUN work with a Nokia 5310 Xpress Music handset,
viii) Are these programmes available in the repos for maemon,
VPNC [/edit: Looks like it might be found here:

GNUPG- [ /edit: Found with GPGME and ClawsMail support this. ]
I appriciate that this list is rather long, but I have to know so that I can decide whether to buy the unit or not.
Best wishes, Z.
