Don't buy it - you have better options - and yes I own one
Folks, as of today (Nov 2008) - you have much better alternatives to N810 - I own one and I am recommending not to purchase N810.
I recently purchased Nokia E71 - a smartphone - it has everything N810 has to offer except a much smaller screen. N810 has bigger screen with a nice resolution but it is painful to use it in U.S. given that you almost all the time need to pair with a web-enabled phone - it is hard to find free hotspots. N810 is slow and it is not as easy to use it's browser as it is advertised. The commercially available quality software such as Office 2007 tools are not available. There are bunch of software that is available from Maemo Garage, and some of them are nice - but you can not find everything you need ... Read More
not as great as it looks
the unit comes with a small, basic set of utilities. a web browser, email reader, and media player with no bells or whistles. but wait! nokia advertises hundreds of great 3rd-party freeware, games, and utilities. geek candy! nokia even provides links to them on the N810 browser's default home page.
this is a clever game. nokia sells you an N810 because you want to personalize your N810 with great stuff. then you get your N810, start to install things, and warnings pop up. Like - "this software is NOT supported by Nokia and may damage your unit!". screw the warning. click through and install anyway.
Then the free stuff doesnt work, wont install, or installs + doesnt work + wont un-install. Which OS do I need ... Read More
Great Little Geek Toy and PDA
I purchased this after seeing it at a Linux user's group meeting I went to. I've been needing a PDA, particularly something that would keep track of my to-do lists for work and home. I love that I can tinker with it and customize the software packages to those that I want, but you need a little more technical knowledge than average to really get the most out of it.
The web browser is great for the limited space, but it occasionally fails to show some pages. This is more due to the web's unpreparedness for mobile devices, though, so I don't fault the Nokia. It doesn't come with a to-do list application and some other minor things out of the box, but it was trivial to install them. I'm a little annoyed, however, that it doesn't ... Read More
Excellent
This is a very nice product for quick Internet access when you're away from a computer. I leave it on all the time, and the battery lasts 2-3 days without needing to be re-charged, and it's easy to carry around (much easier than a laptop) and always handy when I need it.
amazing gadget
just to give you an idea on how awesome the nokia n810 im writing the review from it. its preloaded with lots of google apps so anyone with a gmail account i highly recemend the product. may people complained about the keys on the keyboard but after i got it i didnt get why, my cell phones keys are way smaller. well that about it its a great gizmo.
