I used to do this with my n800 a long long while ago. NOthing new there.. but the amount of google videos is a far cry when compared to youtube

I just bought the N800 two months ago (and, this is not a complaint) The retail price drop on the N800 hampers those that might buy an N810 if the resale value of their N800 were still what it was before the price drop.

There are also some things that I would have done different about the N810 (in order for it to be a personal 'must upgrade today' thing) ... and those two things combined make me stick with the N800 for the foreseeable future.

It does seem that the majority of users on the forum here are N800 owners who will also wait for the next big thing from Nokia : )

I'll just say it again. The pissed off n800 users were like me (a 770 owner) when the n800 came out. I saved the $400 and will most likely get an n810. Wait for the n900 guys. You'll be less mad.

I agree with Zerojay. If Nokia *is* reading this site, I hope they're paying the poor bastard who has to sift through the gripes very well. You all know full well there's an opensource mapping program out there. I don't like / wanna pay for Windows, so I run Ubuntu at home. If you don't like / wanna pay for anything in the built in mapping software, run MaemoMapper.

Stay tuned for my podcast "Shoetying: You can do it big guy!" next Thurs!

The more I think about it, the more I'm convinced Nokia wasn't looking to convert very many current/prospective N800 owners as much as pick up entirely new customers (and to a smaller degree try to repatriate disgruntled 770 owners). Note that I haven't been clued in to the Big Strategy.
