While the GPS performance isn't the best you should keep in mind that there is a possible leapyear bug in effect right now. There's also the possibilty to tether the tablet to an external gps if needed.
If you look at the forrm factor, price, screen, functions and open source aspect there's nothing that beats the n810 if you ask me.

interesting.....did you install KDE on your Nokia ? I did read about this just now, but it looks like not an easy procedure. and does the bluetooth PAN work on KDE ?

Yes, I did. I bought an external 2 GB minisd card to test the KDE environment but I believe it is possible to set it up on the internal card if you remove the maps.
You had to jump through some hoops to complete the installation but I reckon that almost anyone can do it provided that they follow the guide.

I am not sure about PAN in KDE; to get a good answer your best bet would be to post a question in the KDE-forum.

If you know how to open/tar a compressed file, you would be able to install KDE. Here is the step by step guide, http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...t=15491&page=7, thread #66. There are only 4 steps, and the step 4 is to enjoy. I have done it both way, using the .deb or using the tar and I would be glad to walk you thru and share my experience with you.

Christian K: May I help you to try to install KDE. It is a very fun OS on the tablet.
