It would be cheaper and easier to get a 7" eee pc as it's got an atom processor.

Naw.. it just seems like it because it feels abandoned.

I can still do things on the N810 that I can't do on my iPod Touch (the opposite is also true - gaming SUCKS on any NIT when you compare to the iPodtouches/iPhones.

As for the N900... In that time, we N800's went from OS2006 (pre-OS2007) to OS2007... to OS2008... then nothing for any truly meaningful upgrades. SSU's are nothing more than patches, near as I can tell.. and none of it upgraded the kernel to keep up with the mainline kernel. So... hooray. OS2008... aaaand we're now in 2010 with a whole NEW device to get the new updates while we relegate to being stuck in 2008 with a semi-closed device.
Nice.

I only got my 810 in summer of '09, so haven't quite had it a year. I got it because the iTouch I got (and returned) just seemed like it was half-crippled, not supposed to have the ability to do something a real computer would do like using AbiWord or somesuch. And the little Atom-processor lappy I got was difficult to write with while stuck flat out in bed (both legs broken). The one thing I didn't care for in features, being the phone, was not on the 810, which made me happy. I'm like the 3rd person I've ever met that hates their cell phone, lol.
Now the 900 is definitely nice. I've been teetering on getting one or not. But the phone thing keeps throwing me off. I know you don't have to use it, but something about it just being there. Plus the fact I enjoy my 810 quite a lot, even after a year. I use it to write, read blogs, read news, listen to radio, watch videos I converted, play games, and a lot of other. When I travel, it's the first thing I pack. I can hook it up to my externals. I even bought a case (those hardside pocket external cases are perfect) and built some kit for it. Seems it meets my needs and I'm still really happy with it.
