Ah, that's good. Thanks for the update on the pouch.

Confirmed on the dev mailing list that the N810 still has the same problematic video bandwidth issues as the N800. No great surprise really, the N810 is just an N800 with GPS, keyboard and a few other tweaks (mostly bad, ie. no FM radio and miniSD instead of SD etc.) - the device would probably need a wholesale redesign to overcome the video bandwidth issues, which may have introduced more compatability issues than Nokia thought worthwhile.

The next-gen NIT must eradicate this video bandwidth problem - there really will be no excuse not to have eliminated it.

The only thing you're missing is that the N810 has that transflective screen, which makes it really hard to pick the N800, though its become a tough choice with the features that are cut out.

Looking at the car mount accessory, how is this supposed to be mounted? Aren't these usually mounted to the dash or windshield with suction cups. From what I can tell, it just has holes that you drill screws into the opposing surface. I've never owned a GPS so I really don't know.

Does anybody know how the d-pad feels. Was just thinking with the keyboard out and using the right part of the keyboard as buttons, this thing might make it easier to play games. Start tweaking emulators now.

It's easier to play games on the new dpad, when the midbutton is pressed down at all times. The dpad borders are a bit too slippery, but it's pretty good for the emulators. Up is a little bit too difficult to press to my taste because of the location of the button.
