Since the N800 came out, I don't think I've ever been somewhere that didn't have demo units of both the the 770 and N800. Then again, maybe we're just lucky up in these parts

My local Comp USA had the N800 but no 770. Also, it took a sales minion or two to get the encryption key to log on to a functioning wap.

Will remember that if I get error message again...

Well...drove about 14 miles at lunch today to try a N800 at the CompUSA closest to my office....
When I got there they had the 770 on display and powered up....but no internet connection available according to error message...
Looked around on the same display area for a N800 but didn't see one....
So, asked the salesdroid that walked by and he said that they had the N800 in stock but not on display...
So, on my way home just now I stopped of at a Fry's and of course they had the 770 on display, but no N800 on display!!.....
Do you see a pattern here?????
As for Fry's and other outlets, it's a shame the tablets are suffering from the tendency to hire cheap technical help.

Although the way they operate maybe they should/will....

I go to Fry's already knowing what I want. I take it for granted their low-paid associates don't and can't.
I feel badly for the general public shopping there, though...

Yup, you got that right, Texrat....
Meanwhile, guess I'll go out at again today at lunch and see/purchase a N800 if possible....
