[testimonial] I like the two device combo. Not only don't I have a problem with it, in fact, it makes sense to me, but I don't think you need something as powerful as the N95. A simple cheap phone is enough.
I use my phone (razr v3) to make phone calls because it's small enough to fit in my pocket for easy access. My N810 doesn't weigh down my bag like a laptop and I use it to get to the internet (essentially checking my email) because it's big enough to see/read. And, since I can also use the phone to connect to the internet on my N810 in wireless-less places, the combo is just right for me.
Add in the gps, and it's a perfect combo for travel. I've just gotten back from a week long trip and used it for, let's see, checking and writing email, checking my news feeds, watching movies on the train/plane, writing & posting to my blog, showing off photos I took that day and last month to all the relatives and finding my way around in a strange town thanks to the most killa app, MaemoMapper! Did I forget anything? [/testimonial]
O right. The camera, or lack thereof. Well, I guess it isn't perfect but it's very good!
When I'm away I can life without N810 but I can't life without N82.
N82 is:
- ActiveSync client (I've a dovecot imap / z-push system at home)
- UPNP Server
- plays recorded VGA videos w/o problems
- 5MP cam / Full VGA videocam
- geotags my photos VERY fast
- does have working GPS programs (including Google and Nokia maps)
- does have a very intelligent tv-out to show presentations at work and photos/videos on a big screen when I'm at my friends home
- is small
- I've python to do some small own tasks
- I can take phone calls
I can't do that with my N810... a dream combo is the best of N82 + E61 + N810 together in one device
I'm surprised no one has suggested the E90 yet. That's the only phone out now that can compete with the N810 in terms of having an 800 pixel wide resolution, QWERTY, front-facing camera, and wifi. No US 3G though.

It's a Series 60 phone, with badly adapted software to widescreen and suffering from quite a few firmware problems.
...
On second thought, it's competing quite nicely with the N8X0.
