Battery life time per charge: The U1010 has an extended battery which will last me 5h and 20 minutes of DivX playback via a wi-fi connection (shared from a home system. My own benchmark). It can go into standby for 5 days, and lasts me 1.5 days of (my) typical usage (not constant, non-stop usage).

Podcasts: Yes, the N810 wins here. I used to pair my E71 to the N810 for podcasts. But for the trip, I'll be in a different country, data plan will be expensive.
Only 5h and 20 minutes? With my n800 I was able to watch videos pretty much non-stop at work for almost 8 hours with wifi on and me switching back and forth (leaving the video running) to chat in IRC or AIM. I'd also occasionally search for something on the internet. I could get a whole 12 hour shift with periodic movies and lots of browsing/chatting. And I think with the extended battery option available I could get more than 12 hours of constant run time with power hungry tasks.

Browsing wise I don't really notice a huge difference in load time between the n800 and my laptop. Maybe 15 seconds longer for some sites (CNN, gizmodo, etc.), but really it's taking 15 seconds longer and fits in my pocket. People are in such a hurry tsk tsk.

I'm currently on a lookout for a n810. Since I feel the need for one again.
