EDIT: The device is no longer on sale. After watching very descriptive reviews of both devices on you tube, It turns out the N900 is better than the N8 after all. MODERATORS please delete this thread. Thanks.

Good luck with the sale. I've got both and after a month switched my main SIM back into the N900. The N8 is a super device and if I had gone directly from the 5800 XpressMusic to it I'd be nothing but happy. But after 11 months of hauling a computer with a SIM in it in my pocket I have grown use to the abilities of the N900. This takes nothing away from the N8, it is just that the N900, for all of its shortcomings in the phone department, meets my needs better.
It is a great device. And Nokia can correct all the mistakes if they want. The last thing that ticked me off was while using the GPS yesterday, I wasn't able to save locations onto the device, as you can do with other Nokia products. That was the last straw that made me go crazy. lol.
Here are the things which I personally like about the N8:
OVI Maps
Superb Camera
Capacitive Screen with 'Pinch-to-zoom'
USB on the Go
the numerous apps from OVI store
knowing that Nokia won't stop supporting you in terms of updates etc.
However, I really miss the hardware keyboard which is present on my N900 and the open-ness of Maemo.
Also, Symbian feels kinda weird on a touch-screen device (in my opinion Maemo is the ideal OS for touch-screen phones).
But overall, I am happy with both devices. I would never sell either of them.
