On another note, reading your wish list, you'd probably do better with a iPod touch , especially if your going to find yourself re-encoding video anyway. That's heresy around these parts though.

Well i did some tests with the Internet Tablet Video Converter, and i'm pretty sure i won't be converting my library any time soon. Reencoding the Videos for one Weekend trip would probably take about 6 hours (Probably the night from Thursday to Friday). And since the recommended resolution is lower than most of the material i have, i would like to keep the source files. Converting everything would take month and lots of space. I'm probably going to have a "to watch list" pre converted and if i want to take something else, i just take it in whatever resolution it is in...
The touch isn't much of an option to me, among other things i don't want to advocate "closed by design" architecture. I like to tinker with devices, I have an iPod Nano and i put linux on it and wrote some small video player, mainly to prove it could be done...
Also i don't think the touch would offer me enough possibilities for PIM / E-Mail Managment.
The closest other competitors would either be an eee or an Archos 605 Wifi...
Thank you all for the information sofar, i've learned quite abit about the limitations of the N810, but i'm pretty sure i will still get one...
Bye,
NsN

The Nokia Internet Converter is a POS. Its slow and sucks ***. I use either WinAVI Video Converter or Intervideo IVideotoGo.

Wow. Thanks for the kind wordsSeriously though, if you think it's a POS, please share in detail how it could be better, and what else in the marketplace does those things better. It's not like we set out to design a POS you know.

however, the only thing that deters me from using it is that it does not convert from ISO files.
You might want to put a status bar when it does the conversion.
