Dave, I find you're conclusions a mystery because you never present any criteria for what YOU are looking for in a device of this type. Why is a 4.3 inch screen better than a 7 inch screen? I think it's easier to read a bigger screen, don't you? 384MB of RAM is better than 512MB? 2GB of storage is better than 4GB?But apparently this is better cause the Noika can run Palm OS in VM so you can have all the applications from your 5+ yr old Palm on it. In addition, I guess I could deduce that your criteria includes that it's small enough to carry easiy, and has GPS. Wow, that's one compelling argument - I'm returning my Eee today - Thanks!

Actually, I agree with this assessment. I looked at the Eee PC with some interest, but the N810 looks so much tastier.

I loved this Eee pc!
Eee PC means ""Easy to learn, Easy to work, Easy to play."
In my opinion it's way better then OLPC project since it has more system power.
Have you seen this video review made by The Dallas Morning News?

I don't know about you, but I will buy one for christmas! :D

Comparing the N810 to the Eeepc on features alone really isn't fair as the N810 is pocket size and is more a PDA type device.
The EeePc is more a mini laptop like the old toshiba libertto and gateway handbook neither really pocket sized devices unless you have some pants with huge clown pockets vs a hand held device .
The EeePc could have been better if they used an arm processor such as the 620hmz samsung used in the iphone in place of the power hungry X86 cpu as this would give 2 to 4x the battery life or allow them to use a smaller and lighter battery.
I really don't care about running XP or Vista on devices in this size class as windows really doesn't work well on small form factors.

You cant compare the eee to the n180, the eee is a ultra light laptop at a even smaller cost using the arm processor can save battery but moving linux distributions from x86 makes it a bit harder (meaning less options) remember the eee is just like any normal laptop up to a point. How about we check 6 months later and see which device has a bigger market share the eee or n180, sad reality.
Any way viva la Linux

This article is a joke. You don't compare the devices you just tell us how great the n810 is and that the Eee is much worse. Give us a real review! I have a Nokia N800 running tablet os 2008 and I like the Eee much better. The Eee can run Openoffice something that the Nokia N810 can't do. The bit about Garnet VM Garnet looks terrible and isn't even usable. Not to mention It isn't even fair to compare the The Asus Eee Pc to the Nokia N810 or any internet tablet, because the Asus Eee PC is a budget UMPC and the Nokia N810 is an internet tablet. The N810 is a dedicated device! The Eee is not! If your going to compare the the N810 to another device compare it to somethin that makes sense like sonys internet tablet! I am not saying that the Nokia internet tablets are bad and I love using the N800 but if your going to write a review make it a good one. Not a one sided opinion.
