Gaming is possible in most cases, though navigation has sometimes been a problem. I'm not sure how many people here use their N8x0s as proper gaming devices, but I'd wager that it's not more than 5% of the NiT population.
I have imagemagick. Define "proper gaming device", please? I play more games on N800 than on PC, anyways... but I don't play all that much on either. (Not to say I'm typical.)
11. N800's BT support is limited to BT DUN, BT Headset, BT OBEX, and one more that slips my mind (for connection to GPS). It does not have BT File Transfer and I do not recall BT Business Card Exchange support being there. I've also not had any success in getting my Windows machines to see the N800's storage devices as removable storage in the same way that these same machines see the MS Duo memory card on my Sony Ericsson mobiles as removable storage devices.
Mine does have FTP support, though. PAN is said to be working now as well. HID has been working all along, that's keyboards and (with some help) mice.
Business card exchange? I'm no BT whiz, but I'm thinking that's just a layer on top of obex, so I'd think it should be fairly simple if someone needed it.
AVRCP is still missing, and A2DP isn't so finished, though people have experienced varying degrees of satisfaction.
