I don't think the link I posted claim to provide high accuracy data of the comparison, and moreover I can't seem to find any reference of what type of broadband connection do they use in that test. Knowing what kind of speed his desktop\notebook are getting from that connection would be useful too.

Anyway, I personally think the N800 is a very fine mobile device that seems to be in a class of its own as of now (price:size:weight:capability). I don't do heavy browsing on it, but when I do browse it exceeds my expectation for a mobile device. My mobile device list spans from the original Palm Pilot, to CLIEs to the latest Treo, pre-linux Zaurus up to a few of the latest linux Zaurus, the first PocketPC ipaq to HTC universal, WinCE based hp Jornada, and a few other things... Does having tried these many devices make me more forgiving of the mobile platform capabilities? I don't think so. Although it forces me to understand the limitations of the form factor:capability better, it also enables me to recognize a noticeably positive jump in the evolution of the mobile device.

Everyone who has seen my N800 wants one. They immediately think of 'laptop replacement for traveling'. These are people who use Treos and Nokia E90s daily. But I don't think they would be happy if they buy an N800 and try it themselves. Why? Because the N800, out of the box, does not have a very appealing software and functionailities preinstalled and preconfigured.
