Very late to the thread here and haven't participated much in the forums since internettablettalk redirected here. Always found this layout more difficult to navigate and sort of lost interest.
I have an N810 that I bought as soon as it was released and hubby bought an iPod Touch at the same time so the two could "fight it out" and we'd see which one was the better buy. For the first year or two, N810 won in both our minds because it did so much more.
The one program I can't live without is xournal. I use the N810 for handwritten notes and also for signing documents while on the road. For all that iPod touches do now, it still can't do that. I also much prefer the physical keyboard to apple's on screen keyboard, so when it comes to email from a pocket device, it's either the N810 or the E71 Nokia smartphone. Never, ever the iPod touch, which I don't really like for anything other than games.
So what I'm mostly interested in for maintenance/future development is taking advantage of the handwriting features and paperless office concept and basic connectivity for things like email/twitter/web/chat. The N810 even outperforms the iPad (which hubby has) in terms of pdf annotation. I have an Entourage Edge dual screen LCD/e-ink tablet that is developing nicely but quite large and 3 lbs. I think its "Journal" program is probably some variation of xournal, just running on an e-ink screen. The N810 is pocketable and easier to always have on me for just running around doing errands, so it still sees some playing time.
I'm not a developer, so no technical skills. But I'm a notch above "user" and follow directions well. Hubby's a developer, so if I get him interested I can ask for help if I flounder.
Anyway, just wanted to add my voice to those who are still using their N810, even years later!
