Unfortunately for the time being i'm close to broke, I would be essentially trading in my touch and like 30 dollars. If the n900 seems awesome enough I can always just resell the n810 and sell my netbook and I will have acquired a little more disposable income by then.

The two towns which I am going to frequent regularly are both covered well by openstreetmaps, so I should be good, right?

I probably would if I wasn't intending on taking it everywhere with me, making size a big issue

haha, we had the same thought on the issue, I didn't catch your post when originally writing my response
