I have a Nokia 770. If N800 resolved some of the few bugs i found on it... it must be awesome. I love my... thing. As someone said before, it's the nearest thing to "everywhere Internet" i've ever seen. For something bigger you have light laptops. For smaller a decent smartphone. Any combination would cost far less than 2K bucks and will be more efficient.
In Spain telcos use an easier and cheaper way to kill wifi.
They have just spread wifi all over. Thousands of wifi routers are plugged everywhere, nearly every DSL or cable connection has one even if it isn't needed.
Wifi routers they provide are nearly allways poorly configured and allways on the same channels, so when you try to connect even to yours the signal noise is so high you can barely use your own network. You can imagine how difficult is to get a decent link on street. You can get tenths of wifi networks on every corner, every street, and many of them open. Really usable? only a bunch, on neighbourhoods where DSL don't have much penetration (if you ever manage to find one).
Here we currently have more than 100% penetration of celular lines (i mean, more lines than people). Most telcos have interest both on celular and broadband bussiness, and obviously they aren't in the mood of lose any of them.

I find Orkut pretty usefull and It used to be more privacy-tunable than Facebook.

Fox is a nice example of freedom. Everybody (in the EU) know it.
Anyone ever wondered how nicely cutted news people at US get?
