I was just really excited. I saw so many nice apps working and in such a small amount of memory. I agree we have gnumeric and abiword, but we don't have a simple and a bug free way to sync all of our outlook contacts. And the open office portable suite seemed more than most people would need. The suite of apps seemed nice and it appears more are arriving. I didn't realize this was an old concept.

I use the n800 for internet access portability. But I find myself wishing to use it more and more due to the incredible screen. When skype finally gets working on the n800 it will make my life easier.

There is no 1 device for everything, even though I find myself wishing for it. Cell phones are getting better at doing almost everything but the screen resolution is not nearly as nice as the n800. So I carry a camera for photo's, a cell phone for calling and the n800 in my travels so I don't need to lug and be bothered in airport security when traveling.

The n800 I can also leave in my vehicle while its a lot easier to hide than a lap top, although almost the cost of one (recent acer laptops 512 and vista at $399 after rebates).

This website has presented a lot of information and I thank the members for support and continued support for an amazing piece of hardware with a lot of potential. I hope more and more useful stable apps appear so this device does not drift away like the "neXT" computer.
