I am not only new to Nokia 800 but the operating system. I am a Win XP and IE user. I can't even get the game Bejeweled to install. I am having problems with Pidgin for Yahoo also. I don't personally know anyone else that has a N800 that could help me either. I am finding it flustering. So I am not using it as much as I thought I would. 
I just wish installing was simpler or automatic with a simple click like windows xp. Also wish there was more software for it.

Most apps with the green arrow next to them can be installed with a simple click.
If you haven't seen it already, hopefully this tutorial will help:

If it doesn't, post what you're having trouble with and we can try and help.
As for more software, Linux has a lot of really cool stuff out there, it's just a question of waiting for it to be converted to a form that the N800 can use. Bear in mind the N800 as a software platform is only ten months old, it takes a while for these conversions to happen.

BTW, its just a reader. There is gnomesword but no one has took the time to package it together and I don't have the know-how.
Other apps needed:
-Word processor (not abiword)
-Money program
-Sync program (for contacts)

I bought my N800 to use for the Internet when traveling and not have to bring along a heavy laptop. It connected with ease to the Hotel wireless Internet. The Internet is now available on Nintendo DS for about $30 and the price of the Nintendo is around $130. I think I would of been better off going that route because of the available games. The 6 year old can operate the Nintendo.
