I then went over to a Windows phone, and have since gone back to my Nokia 5300, at least the Nokia lets me manage my music. I'll look at an Andriod next year, when they get a bit more cost efective, however, I'l only get rid of my n810 to buy an new one.
While there is a fairly large learning curve to learn how to deal with a n810, as with an Linux distro, it's well worth the effort. The simple fact that you can ssh into the n810, as with other n-series Internet Tablets, makes it nice. Running "real" commands on the device is the "icing on the cake".
Just my two cents,
Denis

I have a 770 and iPod Touch (firmware 2.2). The exchange facilities in the newer
firmware is really good (if you need this) but Unix like stuff is poor on the
Touch compared to the 770. Yes if you want great music support, there's only
one winer.
