N9 and N950 both have terrible WiFi reception and give many connectivity issues. Although most are software related, as it never got to be completed, I'd still say the hardware under performs as compared to other legacy devices.

I've only seen the N800 once.. but damn, that is a device that should go down in the history books.

I have two N800's and got great use out of them. Excellent devices, but feeling underpowered now. I have moved on, and use a Playbook for day to day use. Movies, email, etc.

I still love maemo mapper though, and keep an N800 in good order just for using that on road trips.

[QUOTE=sjgadsby;1266519]Did you break your N800's charging port?



Yes I guess I did. The charger does not seem to make contact after the tip got bent and I tried to straighten it.
Actually I think the loose connection is inside the N800 because I tried a new charger and it never did charge.

Now it will not stay charging. I can move the post a bit and it will show charging but if I let it go it is not charging. I am not sure if the real problem is the charger or inside the N800 where the charger connects.
Any suggestions on fixes? Is it possible to buy a new charger to replace the original one for N800?

So if I can't get my N800 to charge I will have to replace it with something. I got a Nook Color for Christmas and I have tried to like it to surf the Internet but honestly after having a N800 Internet Tablet the Nook just does not stack up.
I would be using a replacement mostly for Wifi when i am away from my computer. I do not have a Data Plan with my cell phone company so I just use free Wifi when traveling.
So suggestions for a replacement?
Why not get an external battery charger? A couple bucks and away you go again without fiddling with tearing your n800 apart to (hopefully) fix it.
