Hm. When I was doing the title, it didn't come up in the search box. Besides, it should be in this forum, not the off-topic forum.

So it is a "Competitor" and not "Off Topic".

It may be that I'd be happier with a G1 in my hand and for quick/dirty things, and a Samsung Q1 Ultra with Ubuntu for things that are too big for the G1. With that combination, I'm not sure where I'd see the N810 fitting in anymore.
And, it may turn out that the G1's screen and RAM would be just enough for me to replace the N810 alone (without addressing whether or not I need to get the Samsung).

A little better than the Nokia E71, and twice as good as the E61i (my current phone).

Looks good. 5 row qwerty keyboard, even. Not sure if it'll have ALL of the apps I want (decent RSS reader, OpenSSH with port forwarding, VNC client being the 3 big ones that I don't see listed already), but it could be promising. It'll be interesting to see how it ends up competing against the N810, especially for the crowd that wants an N810 with a GSM/UMTS radio.
The only things I immediately see as being drawbacks are that the screen size and resolution are smaller than the N810. But, then, the device itself is also smaller.
Depending on the apps, I could easily see this replacing my E61i and N810 as my "in pocket" device(s). And if it tethers, then maybe carry a Samsung Q1 Ultra with Ubuntu Mobile, in my bag, for the rest of my mobile needs.
