Lets hope so. Over here in the UK, I saw the N800 on a display in PCWorld, but it didn't say what it was. Played with it a bit, thought it was a phone, got interested. Then I heard about it on a mac group when the 770s got cheap and someone was raving about them, so I got one. I hadn't heard about them anywhere else, and I read tech websites and such.
When I was last in PCWorld, I was fiddling with the display 800 (which was hard as the battery was dead and it was unplugged and shoved out of the way so it kept resetting), and a guy came over watching. He asked if it was a phone, I said no, he thanked me and walked off.

I have never been asked what an iPod was!
