##s for you sir

Okay, so I had ordered an N810 but it was taking a long time to ship. You guys out there are out geeking me to the order button. The unexpected (and unwanted)extra time gave me ample opportunity to evaluate my purchase and I decided that I didn't really need the extras that the N810 offers over the N800.

So I canceled my order.

I decided instead to order the N800. Hopefully it will ship soon, although there again I'm late to the party of this round of ordering. I'm considering buying some of the other small internet capable devices in the nearish future, and seeing if I prefer any over my NIT. Certainly most of you have heard of Archos and the EEE; beyond that we'll see. Some of the other options are pricey as far as me and my situation are concerned. I'll keep looking around, though, looking for interesting solutions.

No I will not get an iPhone. I love Apple, but not their phone :/

Let me know if you guys know of any other options.

I took the plunge!

Well I did it people!  I went ahead and ordered the N810.  I had been waffling a bit between getting that or the N800 and a keyboard plus some goodies.  This is a graduation present I'm buying for myself, so I figured I'd splurge a little bit.  I guess I'm naturally given to splurging anyway...

Ordered from Provantage.com as most everyone I have read with comments about them say they are a good company to deal with.  Also, it didn't cost just short of $500 + shipping.  Even paying for shipping it cost me $417.21USD.  Okay, so a little pricey for a guy that doesn't technically have a job yet, but I'm confident I will have one and I'm hoping it shows up before I graduate or, at the very least, soon after.

Here are some YouTube vids:







There are others of course, these are the ones I liked more.  They give you a sense of the size of the tablet and how it performs in actual use.  

Also, if you're interested, hop on over to tabletblog.com and check out what Thoughtfix has to say on it.  Lots of articles there and links to other sites for further information.
