Just yesterday I picked up my 770 for the first time in about 5 months and I was struck by how slim, small and light it felt compared to my N800. I used to take my 770 with me everywhere, the case/cover afforded it excellent protection as well as providing useful offline/online functionality - still an important consideration for some of us! I now take my N800 to fewer places because it lacks the protection and it's bulkier than the 770 - the N800 is far less trouser pocket friendly.

The "N900" can learn a lot from the 770, and far less from the N800.
