I have no issues with my n800, no reboots or faulty screen!

And I would recommend you to get one! but only if you are patient and can wait for updates, and software to be ported!
Also you mentioned you are not geek! well if you get an n800 for surfing the web! then thats great! but if you hang around these forums, you will start doing all sorts like, converting films to watch, mp3 playing! installing games! tuning all your local radio stations! sending picturs from your mobile to view on the lovely screen! eben listening to internet streams , it feels different than on a pc, more personal! one thingthough after a while it may turn you into a geek!

good luck
