I admit it. My N810 is rarely out of reach. Time spent in these forums is also part of the addiction, for me anyway! Good thing the bride doesn't see that as well

There IS hope for a cure. Medical scientists are currently examining the makeup of people who hate the internet tablets to see if there is a common biological component. If one is discovered, the idea is that an antidote might be developed, and perhaps even a vaccine for future innoculation.

An antidote, my foot. I'll bet that those "scientists" are actually mercenaries sponsored by Nokia, and if/when they find that gene/enzyme/whatever, they'll synthesize it and spread it all over the globe to create six billion more addicts and finally achieve world domination. Shudder.

Of course the maemo repository servers will implode, but on the bright side they won't need to mess with coupon programs anymore :-)

Yes, I was just thinking this a.m. that this is the best 'toy' I'VE had in a long time! I think part of its appeal for browsing. besides the obvious size/portability, is its absolute SILENCE. No noisy fan to disturb my wife, unlike the l.t.

Yep same here. I now have net connection with my Alltel LG8600 via BT and Alltel's EVDO data plan anytime I can't locate a WIFI sig. Right rear pocket is my wallet and left pocket is my N810.

Signs you are in the terminal stages:

1. You ssh to it since you have an ARM gcc installed. Worse if you VNC to the KDE desktop.

2. You left you laptop on the desk when nature called, but take the Nokia with you.

3. You don't bother writing an alarm clock application since having it within reach would keep you awake.

4. Your cellphone's batteries have died but you haven't noticed since you have several SIP/VoIP accounts and forwarded everything there.

5. For n810 owners, when standing, and you want to type something, you grab your LCD monitor and push the lower back portion down for a few seconds before remembering that the keyboard is detached and won't slide out.
