2) have a proper PIM suite (better than GPE/GPE summary + working alarms
3) not make me pay a monthy bill to a phone company.
That would interest me enough to make me buy a replacement for my N800.
I didn't include the first two of those because those are really software issues (well, "being able to run Xournal" is a software issue; the hardware counterpart to that is "has a screen comfortable enough for doing that", which I addressed with the screen question). I was really trying to focus on the device, and not the software.

The point of the questions about 3G data and non-VOIP voice (specifically, the requirement to NOT have them) were geared around your requirement to not have a monthly bill.
