I don't really post that much on this forum but I do read it a lot and I was blown away by responses people said about the Internet speed. Maybe my N800 is just super-powered or something but I have never had to wait over 2 seconds for a page to load (unless its a page with a video on it or lot and lots of moving graphics / .gif images) and most the time I am connected through a cellphone that is not capable of 3g. Not to sure if people are exaggerating their load times or not but I would have to say mine just about matches my desktop when connected to any legitimate wifi network that has a good signal, and when connected to a cellphone it lags behind my desktop by about 1 to 1.5 seconds which isn't much considering that I can get the Internet wherever I am as long as I am within the At&t Network or another network it can roam on that already has Internet settings on my phone like T-mobile. And I am using the default browser that came with the newly updated Firmware.
I don't have too many complaints on my end, and the only ones I have are about certain software that I would not have even expected to run on this when I bought it like emulation speeds and such. I think its a great little device and I use it as my daily laptop. I do not carry around any other laptop anymore because this thing has bettered all of my old ones even my UMPC (which I should have never bought) And to top it all off I get 7+ hours of battery life on it which outlives almost any laptop to my knowledge (unless you get some sort of extended battery). Maybe some of you just need to update to the new firmware (which I also don't seem to be having any of the problems other people had with it in the other forum?)
