Being a Linux sissy, I was wary to try vpnc from the command line, but after installing the vpnc app and the GUI interface today I was able (contrary to earlier reports) to connect to my campus VPN (New York University) using the GUI interface which works well. Since I spend 70% of my day on campus, this now renders the N800 completely indispensable, mobile computing campus wide, online apps for taking notes in classes and if I leave my desktop on via VNC or RDP I will be able to connect for power use at any time
