Hi there,
I saw after some searches on the Internet that we need to pay for using the GPS functionality of the N810.
Is it possible to connect the GPS of the N810 via BlueTooth with another device such as a Palm or a Nokia phone that doesn't have any GPS?
Also, I saw that the N800 and the N810 are very different regarding the device specs. I'm planing to use another OS such as Debian or Android. Can you tell me the best N8*0 that can support them please (due to RAM, CPU, etc. perfs)?

The only other differences between the N800 and N810 afair (off the top of my head) are that the N810 has a GPS and the N800 has a built in FM radio tuner.

I think if you are looking for a good GPS device this is not it. If you want to use it for driving with maemo-mapper it works great. Probably would not be good for geo-caching as its not that accurate, but it works well for driving. So like I said if you want a good GPS this is not it. If you want a multifunction device that you can surf the web, send email and use it for driving, its a good compromise.

Is it possible to use Google Maps with the N810's GPS to bypass this?
