Just so it's clear: I'm _more_than_happy_ with it being 100% optional. I like the wifi-only aspect of the N800 just fine. But I also want tighter integration between the N800 and the phone I might use as a gateway. If that can't happen, then maybe I would want to use the N800 as a cell phone as well, which also gets you IP via 3G.

Though, I've seen some devices that have wireless IP via GSM or 3G, but not voice call ability. That'd be an interesting option, too.

But, ultimately, yes: 100% optional. I want the option to only use my next gen IT with wifi, and no monthly fee.
