2. Incredible if you've actually bought 2 SD cards for your N800. I would venture to say that a large majority of N800 owners are either using the one that came with it, or have purchased AT MOST one card. Upping it to 2GB built-in out of the box will be a big upgrade for most Tablet users
3. The 770 debuted at $379 (or something around there), and the N800 debuted at $399. The N810 is $479, but also comes with the car mount in the box, a first for the tablet series. Perhaps it's ~$20 too high, but it's not outrageous, considering the line's history.
4. It's a touchscreen.
5. Do you really use the camera?

1. This thread is full of the opinions of people who haven't held one yet, and I did say I'm looking forward to trying it at the store.
2. For how much money some people spent on SDHC cards, it is really extremely lame that the new device cannot use them. At least with 770 and N800 we could move our RS-MMC cards between both devices. Now, while N800 can take all cards, 770 and N810 can't share at all. Not to mention all the cameras people already own SD cards for...
3. Have you seen the Eee PC? I think it is going to debut at under $300 still.
4. The 770 has a hard cover. Apple's crappy handhelds have glass screens with without a raised lip at the edge. The N810's screen looks as fragile as the N800's.
5. Not much, which is all the more reason why it is nice to not have it out all the time.
