Dear all,
I cannot consider the N810be be a carry around computer,instead of an Internet Tablet because of one thing that the Acer and the other netbooks have, and the n810 does not have:
* VGA out
If I wanted to use the n810 as a PC replacement then a VGA is what it would have to have. Then one can take it home and plug it into a TV or LCD, or take it to work and plug it into the work LCD screens in the office. Sadly, if work asked me what I would like as a notebook/ desktop replacement, then I would opt for an EEE PC because of the VGA out. I cannot peer at a screen this small for hours on end. I type this note from my Vaio, which is easier on my eyes that at present do not require glasses!
If the n810 had a VGA out then I would sell my notebook/ laptop and change to the N810. There is a VGA-USB project on the go. Its good work, but still in progress.
The second killer for the N810 would be HSPA/EDGE connectivity.
Regards, Z.
I have not read the whole thread so sorry if this has already been pointed out.
