Well, I ended up ordering myself an Asus EEE.

I have my iPhone and the feature cross over from the N800 was just too great. Having hacked my phone again and loading all the neat apps on again, I just couldn't justify a second ARM device... compiling x86 apps will be nice on a tiny EEE.

I will likely revisit the IT hardware (even in its current incarnation as the N810) at a later date, but for now the iPhone really just beats it down in the pocket internet department.

Safari, Linux tools, terminal, nes emulator, multi protocol IM program, accelerometer games, a working IMAP client (lol...), awesome h.264 support with TV out... In my phone 11mm thick.

Hopefully, with some additional development time, the 2008 OS will receive some of the goodies that will bring me back. I'll pop in the discussions still, as I enjoy this community very much I just want it to get a little closer to being a computer... Maybe a switch to x86 will provide that.
