Peace Maemo's! Just joined before I buy. I've coded for Linux in a past life, want a non-cell phone PDAish tablet to play with and possibly develop for. I know the N900 is just out, but price tag too rich for me at the moment (and don't need phone bill). I'm currently thinking of getting a N810 off ebay, but I have some noob questions.
-Most used units say 128M RAM yet it's expandable to 2Gig internal. Did they really ship with only 128M?
-Will support for os2008 continue for long or will maemo 5 port to the n810? I think the answers are no and no.
-Any essentials I should look for that might be critical but not sold with the NIT on ebay?
-Any flaws that flag larger issues to completely avoid?
-What are you thoughts on 'must have' apps? How much can be installed at the same time?

I'm sure I'll have more questions once I get one and start playing.

So, hello and thanks for all the help already!

RAM = 128 MB + 128 MB swap file. The 2GB is internal storage.

Welcome, Jrtweetwer. Before you invest in an N810 you might want to search this forum to compare it to the N800. I bought a new N800 on eBay for $150. Instead of the 2gb limit on the internal memory, the N800 has a standard SD socket ( I have 16gb internal memory). I use a bluetooth GPS receiver that works much better that the one built into the N810. If a built-in keyboard is a must, then forget about the N800.
