I like the N810, I've using one for ages.. but it's a bit of a dead fish.. The N900 is the next evolutionary step.
I wouldn't buy an N810 now because a) there's no more Nokia development and b) it's not a phone.. but it doesn't stop it being a great device!
The n900 is muuuch faster though.. the email client is fantastic (speed wise) compared to the n810.. and the browser is pretty fab too!

android might be worth a play but although the platform is open (in some ways more so than maemo) the devices aren't.
sorry this reply took longer, I've been out and now I'm replying on my device. niiiiiice
sorry everyone

Anybody going for holidays to Dubai, yesterday there was stock in Dubai Mall Nokia shop and other shops selling n900 as well.
City is bankrupt but phones are for sale
At least then I can try in Dubai Mall.

No warranty in UK...
Also (I lived in Dubai) if you buy a phone in Dubai and it stops working in the first 28 days (even if you try it once you've paid for it & you're still in the same shop!) you don't get replacement, they'll send off for repair!

As I think I said earlier in this thread: I've written up the *whole* story (starting with my order) with NOS, including the ******** ship dates and all, and I'm going to send it as high up the food chain as I can get on Monday.
Which might just be fairly high up, if they've still got that ******** £1k hold on my account.
I don't know how much good it will do, but I live in hope that it will result in some arses getting kicked, and I advise others to do the same.
Keep posting over in the 'shop.nokia.co.uk cancelled my order' thread, too.
Is that high enough for you?
