I think China made a similar demand not to long ago...

That would be downright un-american here in the states. :p

The last 3 phone upgrades I made with the same carrier and same manufacturer (the name starts with an /\/\ :) )I have had 3 different batteries, chargers, and data cables. My wife who is with the same carrier and uses the same manufacturers phone has a seperate account but with an upgrade schedule that is out of phase with mine.

We have a seperate bag with all the dang chargers for when we travel. :eek:

Fortunately my last phone is USB and I'm begining to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Added: Welcome aboard Bobbe. IMHO you did real well at that price and will get years of use from the N800. :)

Yes! :) Now if only the car manufacturers would get on board and provide 4 USB charger outlets in the front cabin and 4 outlets in the back to replace the 1 archaic "cigar lighter" outlet we all use. :eek:

You probably already know: there's a cable which may spare us another one, and works well (I guess) with both N810 and E71:

Honda Pilot is the only car I've seen that has a USB port as an option. Ironic, because Honda as a whole, is behind on providing bluetooth in their models.

My last two BMW's had USB ports. very useful for playing tunes and charging devices. :)

At work I got this phone and I've to say it really limits the need to bring along the N810.

It has almost everything (and more) I was using in the IT in a third of space and weight:

- gps (fast) and maps
N810 has even better maps (Maemo Mapper and Wayfinder Map) and works great with ext GPS (the internal GPS of the 5800 is crap and I think the E71 GPS is not better)
- qwerty keyboard (smaller, but better)
For mouselegs it is better but not for human fingers. I barely use the hardware kb of the N810 as the onscreen is configurable.
- wifi and bluetooth
N810 as well
- putty client
N810 has native SSH
- fring client
N810 has a much better 'internet call' much better than fring on E70 or 5800
- internet browsing with flash (casual use)
N810 same and has no WAP user agent (check www.cnn.com or www.smh.com.au these are shown as WAP pages on Nokia phones)
- email
N810 as well
- better PDA
If you need PIM you're right otherwise, no....
- PDF reader
N810 as well
- small office (word, spreadsheet)
Yes that is NOT on the N810
- sport-tracking
N810 as well lots of such apps
- mp3, real, youtube players
N810 as well and Youtube just plays natively in browser
- microsd card

and moreover:

- 3G connection
With N810 over BT
- ah, yes: phone calls :)

The N810 has no 'memory full' problems which is a general issue on Symbian when too many apps are loaded.
And a much better screen (800x480 instead of 320x240)
