You underscored my point exactly. As I said several times, but will say again for the edification of some here, after looking at the N800 in a different light, I realize it has shortcomings but these are easy to overlook when viewed from a different prospective.

The current rebooting and repair options are unacceptable considering that money that Nokia is asking for this device. I am scheduled to head to Iraq for a few days and had planned to leave my computer behind as I will have access to wifi in Iraq. However, the rebooting issue had given me pause. This is an issue that "pure endusers" should not and probably do not want to deal with. Does this make us technically-challenged? Not in my case, it does how ever make me annoyed.

Anyway, if you can read this, you have a good point. Nokia is spend a bit of dosh on something that is probably easily fixed.
