I would say wait. A mere 5-6 months ago this device was unique and one of a kind, then the iPod touch showed, as well as the Assus EEE PC. Then Nokia went to 810. And NOW CES was all about MID's and UMPC... so the landscape for handheld internet devices is moving VERY VERY fast. If/when you can get a N800 for like $199, I'd say do it!
a cautionary note.. The units they sell on Tiger are USA intended and Nokia has regional warranties. My headhphone jack doesn't work. this ver of Linux doesn't support Bluetooth headsets... so I am stuck.

the future will be here before you know it
the N800 is $250 @ tigerdirect.ca
I am looking forward to up to the minute Macworld action.
