ok, the speed without sacrificing battery life are good things I am interested in.
Not so worried about video, apart from flash, as music and video playing are handled by the iPod (and I happy with it that way).
I like the stand idea too (especially as I have a bluetooth keyboard. Is the 2008 upgrade a free one?
Do you mean there is a hardcover included or do you have to buy one? That is one of the things I like on the 770, the integrated hard cover (especially as it puts it to sleep).

I upgraded the 770 to 2007HE, and apart from the wireless no longer working and the change of image, I really can't see that much of a change (well, other than I can use the official version of aisle riot rather than my own compiled one). Is it just the speed, and the upgrading to 2008 processor speed, does that reduce battery life?

wireless no longer working? Do you use some special type of authentication?
So unless you are 100% satisfied with 770 go for N800 (or N810 if you don't mind the money and only one memory slot like with 770).
When I got N800 I still used 770 quite a lot and took it everywhere because of the cover and size. Now when I have N810 too I switched 770 for N810. N800 have no good cover and is a bit bulky so I'm using it only at home for couch/bed/toilet browsing and watching movies (full size SDHC slots!).

Hmm.. not so good then. I like the 770 case. I don't need it for home, as the laptop is fine for that.

I always used the 770 with the OEM OS2006; it was rock solid and never had a limitation on web browsing.
I can tell you it was not a good reason as OS2008 is not A LOT better than OS2006 when you use the tablet as is for video-mp3-web

What, exactly, is the advantage of the N810 over the N800, in your use case, that would merit its recommendation over the N800?

No hardcover, sorry, though there is some kind of sock thing.
Separate hardcover shouldn't be too pricey.
