As you say though, is the market big enough?
. iSync would be the biggest selling point for me.

I agree with Karel and Jeff. For the N800 to experience a real uptake with the community that really matters, the biz community, it will have to provide more biz like applications. Right now for the most part, the N800 is a developer device or for early technology adapters. It has quite a market potential because, as Karel has pointed out, the all in one device is really not very practical. While the concept is laudable, the practical considerations say otherwise.

Thank you for your email. Unfortunately, our software is not compatible with the Nokia N800 and we are not planning on adding compatibility for this handheld.
I'm sorry that I could not be of more assistance.
Please feel free to contact us if you have any further questions or concerns.
Thank you --

Just found a site with Winzig, Can you say that this runs on the N800 and if so, how do you install it? I am not a Linux guy and this is all a bit new to me. I am sure your help will benefit others here as well.

Had my bosses test the 770. The unit was considered "nice but unuseabel" since it could not sync with Outlook/Exchange. Wether one likes MS or not, the fact remains that they, together with Lotus Notes, have a major share of the Calendar/Contact market. And WinCE PDA's can sync with those two in both directions resonably easy.
So either Nokia delivers an app or get's someone to write an app that can do theses link-ups on a "useable by MBA" level or the Tablet won't make any big inroads. Get's even worse with the new bigger screened WinCE maschines that attract the MBA's and Windows guys because they are VB.NET programmabel.
As far as paying goes: Yes, up to 50€ IF I don't need an external server (that's why DejaPim is out)

I'm so totally in agreement with the logic presented by the original poster that if I could have stated it so well myself, I would. Excellently put.
