Benny, you are correct. It is mostly streaming that I care about. The fact that I could create a media file using very specific attributes (resolution, compression, data rate, sound, ...) is not very interesting. I like the N800 but it will never be my only device, so my media needs to be accessible from any device. My cell phones, laptops, and PDA's have no problem streaming media, I would expect that as an "Internet Tablet" this would be second nature. The internet is no longer just text (bbs). What is the point of the increasing connectivity speeds if all we need the internet for is text.

Thanks everyone for the comments
