Yes, that is not far from how they sound.They are stumped when I ask them what computer they are talking about, that I am not running any Microsoft products.
I set Maemo Mapper maps to Auto-Download. When you are connected to Wifi, the maps you are trying to navigate to are automatically downloaded. I tried this for where I lived in Barcelona and Moscow, for example, and for places mentioned in The Forsyte Saga.
When you are NOT in range of Wifi, there is no automatic downloading of maps from anywhere, so if you are going on a trip, a good idea is to trace the route in Maemo Mapper when you have Wifi; then the areas you want to use it on are available when you are out of Wifi range. You can download a vast amount of mapping information; the only real limitation is how much memory you have, and you can buy lots for not much money.
I travel regularly from San Diego to LA and back by train, a 5-hour trip. I now take my N800 with me instead of a laptop. There is no wifi on the train, but I use the N800 as a book reader, mp3 player, spreadsheet, gps map device (the gps doesn't seem to work for me on the train, but the map system certainly does and gives me details about the scenery I am passing) and note-taker. I probably won't take a laptop with me next time I travel abroad, because I use this much more than my Dell Latitude. I got the N800 in January and have had no screen sensitivity problems at all. Before the firmware update, I did have to reflash several times. I added a 2 GB memory card and sent off for a 4 GB card. If you are willing to spend the bucks, you could probably have 16 GB now, room for lots of stuff.
What I particularly like the N800 for is having a computer with me at all times, maybe not the best for every function, but something that will almost always do the job. I hated the feeling of leaving a cruise ship in Alaska and coming across a Wifi bar but not having bothered to lug my laptop with me. Now I'll always be ready. And I can always read more of The Forsyte Saga and The Secret Garden... (Oh! And the alarm wakes me up nicely for a 4 a.m. jog!)

Yeah,I talked to that guy, but he was much more profane.

I find pretty girls sitting in the front row even more distracting. But even worse is a boring lecture.
I think that telling the police that you were on tv in Europe during the killing and can prove it might help exonerate you.

Absolutely. They don't edit the people out of postcards showing city streets, either.
