First, I love my N800--it's amazing, innovative, and very useful. But IMO, the ultimate sweet spot for an internet tablet needs the following features. In other words, if I could wave a magic wand and get everything I want in an internet tablet, this would be what I want:

1) fits comfortably in my pocket
2) has autosync PIM support
3) opens and edits Word and Excel files
4) has gps (preferably SIRF III)
5) has skype
6) is a cell phone
7) has at least 480 x 640 screen resolution
8) has instantaneous e-mail delivery to the phone
9) runs medical software (I'm in med school)
10) runs java

I know, this is a VERY tall order to pull of technically. There's a device that's about to be released that claims to pull this off. The Glofiish X800.

There are a couple of downsides with the X800 vs. the N800:
1) the screen is 2.8" (smaller and with a little less resolution than the N800)
2) it's not the sexiest design
3) it'll probably cost at least $200 more than the N800

This seems to be the ultimate sweet spot. As much as I love my N800, if the Glofiish X800 reviews are good, I'll be tempted to sell my N800.

What do you think?
