 Awesome, 2007-07-04
I love this thing. Linux in my hands :)
Cons: Flash 7 & it's streaming is too slow. Hopefully a future OS update/release will mitigate this.

You can't go wrong with this product, 2007-06-28
I have a full review of this product on my site if you care to check it out.
The N800 has everything (well, almost): a gorgeous high-resolution touch-sensitive screen, bluetooth, wifi, webcam, decent speakers, and a CF Slot.
The only thing missing is the cell phone capability. Yes, Skype is coming but you still need wifi for that. To make this a killer gadget, a cell phone feature would be wonderful.

Most useful handheld I have owned, 2007-06-20
Having owned 3 Palm and one Windows Mobile device over the years, I have found that my needs have changed, while the products have not. Both the Palm and WM/PocketPC products work well as information managers (contacts, calendar, notes), but internet communications lacked. Having transitioned to personal webmail, and with the current trend that most companies only provide remote access to mail and calendar via the web, I have found that most handheld browsers are not suitable. They often cannot render pages properly, and if I have not performed a recent sync, my information is out of date.
The N800, while not natively capable of syncing to MS Outlook or Lotus Notes, has the internet connectivity and software that allows me to access corporate sites without the need to sync. The information is available just as if I was accessing via a full sized laptop. So far, the Opera browser displays about 95% of what I need.
There is a growing list of free/open-source software to install, and if you are inclined, tools are available to develop your own. But so far, I find the N800 is best suited as a mobile web browser. This device is not a PC companion, but a small PC itself, meant to run independently. It is not a phone, and does not run MS Windows - but I think (for me at least) that is what has made this the must useful handheld I have owned.

Great machine though it took some initial effort......, 2007-06-15
A couple of the reviews I read talked about not being able to connect to the internet. I, too, was having the same problem and was getting frustrated. I spent quite a bit of time talking between the Nokia and wireless router tech's, and each thought the other needed to assist in changing a setting. Finally I did a search on the internet and came up with a forum that stated it may need to be reflashed, or checked for software updates. I made an assumption that right out of the box it would be up to date, but found this wasn't the case. Afterwards, it worked like a charm.
Bottom line is, Nokia has made a nice piece of equipment in the N800. But with my moderate tech knowledge and the fact not very much info is included, I almost gave this a zero. So it would help if there was a little better support by Nokia (hate pushing all the menu buttons on the phone and service stores are nowhere near my area).
But after doing this basic step of uploading the device, I rate it a five.... [...]
