I think you neglected to notice the part where he pointed out that it needs to be cheap.

My girlfriend now wants some kind of media player device and I'd like to get her something that can be at least as good of a media player as the N800, heck I'd just get her an N800 but the only ones I'm seeing now start at $350 and up. Considering this is pretty old tech (and I bought mine 2 years ago for half that price) this seems like a steep price.
I don't really use my old N800 much at all anymore, ever since I got my Droid and my Dell Mini9, and so it just sits around most of the time. I have two 8GB SDHC cards, two AC adapters, DC adapter, car mount and GPS module. I think I still have the original box for both the N800 and the GPS kit. I'd be willing to sell you my N800 for relatively cheap but the headphone jack is a little flaky (when you plug in a headset it comes in mono until you twist the plug for a bit until you get stereo). Considering she'd want it for multimedia, that might not be acceptable unless you were intending to use it strictly with Bluetooth or the internal speakers the whole time. Let me know if you're interested, otherwise I'd recommend one of those Archos tablets. ESPECIALLY if she's into multimedia.
