I don't know how spendy you want to be. To me -- but I ain't you! -- your needs that exceed the N800 sound minor.

You probably know this, but if you don't ... If you don't use the phone much, the prepaid T-Mobile "non-plan" is very cheap. If you buy your time right, it's 10 cents per minute, pretty much however little you use it. (I spend only about $100/year.) And the phone is cheap, too. It would cover your picture-taking needs, but not your other needs, like wifi-less gps.

This isn't at all what you asked about, but I thought I'd throw it out there. Maybe you just don't have a great enough need to make the cost of an iPhone or G1 monthly plan worth it. And the savings you would make would be more than enough to pay for a new RX-51 when it comes out.

Finally, do we know for a fact that the RX-51 will not double as a phone? Since Nokia is equipping it with G3 it seems strange that it would not be provided with a cellphone option.
