What did the article mean by
"N810's power-saving mode was enabled for these tests because it is the default setting." ?
What power saving mode?

i am so selling my n810. I dont see any reasons to keep it. can someone tell me which way is n810 better than both those products?

could be ondemand vs performance i suppose..
It can make quite a bit of difference.

qole says it took about 30 seonds off the start time of open office with performance mode.
I notice great usability improvements when compiling on device and within lb.
Don't underestimate it - try it yourself with real tests outside of liqbase.

I don't know about you guys, but since I found WorldTV99, I've found another reason not to get an Archos.

On-Demand: 41 seconds
Performance: 32 seconds
That's over my home wifi network, from the same location on both tests.

N800 -> About 200 Used
N810 -> About 300 New
Archos -> About 350 New
So, N810 is cheaper! Wow! Oh, and it has a more features, like Bluetooth, SD card slots, Real software, a keyboard, GPS, etc..... and don't have to pay for every additional feature! What a shocker!
The Archos is for playing music and watching Video. Unlike the iPhone or the N810, there will most likely never be a App Store like thing, because there is not enough demand. Apple opened up the floodgates, and now the iPhone has so many apps its amazing. The N810 was open since the start, and it too has so many apps. The Archos is a "dumb" device that will only work with what it shiped with. That is all there is to say...
