citing Wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerning, the spacing between the numbers of the 8, the digit in question, and the trailing 0 does not match with the other phones that have a 1 in them. it more matches the spacing on the 6300 phones text label. check it out.

That's what I was thinking, but I'm still hoping for a product refresh 
(i didn't grab the 810, not worth it imo @ price level. an 830 with wimax might be...

I have a good question that shouldn't reveal too much.
Texrat - Would you purchase an N810 at this point, for $399 if you had no interest in a WiMax version (not an option down here in Louisiana)?
I wouldn't want to suffer another painful price drop, as happened with my iPhone. I'm still very happy with the device, but I'm weary of these sneaky corporations now!

As for Sherifnix, sorry, I can't answer that question yet.

whilst I'd love an n810+w, I doubt that the same frequencies will be used in UK as USA and Canada (hmm, it'd be great if it were a swappable module - the zaurus's CF slot is probably what saved it from extinction), so I suspect that people who rush to buy/import it will be disappointed!
however, if the 810+w pushes down the price of the 810, just as the 810 killed prices for the 800, I will be happy to upgrade to a cheap 810, though I'd be sad to lose the dual SD slots!

Hopefully the Tablets won't mind that I strayed for a while, and that I carry an iPhone.
And as for the "buy now or wait" question... Come on, technology always gets cheaper. You have to look at it this way: you are buying more than just a device, you are buying time on a device. I'm so glad I bought my N800 when I did, instead of waiting for it to come down another $50 a couple of months later. I got two very happy months for that extra $50.
On that note, maybe buy an N800 for $225. Then you won't feel the same level of buyer's remorse when the Nxx0W comes out.
