1 - Leafpad... because Maemopad doesn't wrap, Notes utility has been crashing (internal application error) and mangling/truncating/losing "formatted text" files, and PyGTK doesn't allow font choosing.
My eyes are really bad, so I need a simple text editor with selectable font.
Leafpad worked great for me on my 770, but won't install on the 810.
2 - sDict viewer (or ANY good German-English looker-upper!)

1) fix so you can type passwords on the full-screen keyboard. That was the most visible problem to me when I tested the system itself
2) general availability of apps. Most of the apps I use have been ported, but it's early yet. I admit I'll really miss Video Center; it was nice to be able to just click and download videos (and I rather liked Textra).
3) Removal of "beta" from the system. I'm really liking the N800 and though I'll test beta apps, I'm depending on it so much I'm loathe to put an untested system on it permanently.
