I cannot help but notice that there is at least one N800 on sale for the past week everyday and today we have two on the same thread in one day! And the 'net' price for a used N800 has also slowly drifted from $240+ TO ~$180 (minus SD card, and other niceties). What is the hurry?
Is the N900.................umm, puzzling

I think that there are a lot of N800s out there, and this place is a good place to sell one and a good place to buy one. I think that most of the people selling them don't know the inside story of the N900.

Could be people moving over to a new device like an Ipod touch I noticed about half the n800 sells are willing to trade for an Ipod Touch or simular

It's just a natural progression in a product's lifetime.. A new device in the same series superceded it (N810) so the N800 is seen as an older product that is less desirable with a falling price tag.

Nokia has also set a precedence of heavily slashing prices of their older product in this series with how they handled liquidating their stock of N770.

Sorry, to hear that, hope things get better tomorrow.

Wilson NC is also being hit badly, mainly because of the gas price. And recently gas is on the news MORE than elections, not a good sign.

Well, I snapped up one of the N800. That seller's reason was that he wanted the GPS and keyboard of the N810. Now that we have some MiniSD cards of decent capacity, many people are upgrading and off-loading the old model.
