Purchase/Arrival date: 2/7 arrived 2/9 with standard shipping so that was awesome. Highly recommend this site.
Have had my n810 for about a month and a half, and it's getting better day by day. Initially the browsing was slow, and so I followed various posts on the site (Brontide's tuning post & his useful css setup). The one thing I've discovered is that my move to clone the OS onto an SD card wasn't a great idea as the performance booting off the SD card is *significantly* worse than booting off internal flash. Whereas previously it would take ~1 second for any page to load in the browser (microb webkit/gecko or tear), it's now nearly instantaneous.
Likes:
* microb (webkit for kinetic, gecko for brontide's fantastic css setup)
* tear -- blazingly fast, though bookmark support could be improved
* PDF viewer (resize pdfs to 4.5" screensize)
* FBreader (.10.5 with epub integration for feedbooks rocks)
* openvpn support
* BT tethering support is fantastic
* feedcircuit
Dislikes:
* would've been better with more RAM (256+ would be ideal)
Overall an amazing device at a bargain price.
