Apple iPod touch Nokia n800 Internet Tablet

Every since Steve Jobs announced the new Apple iPod touch, I've been seriously considering purchasing the iPod touch but what would I do with my Nokia N800 Internet Tablet. So I began weighing the pros and cons of each. Hopefully, this will help me decide if I rather get an iPod touch and get rid of my Nokia n800.

 

Here's short list of my pros & cons:

 

Cons

iPod Touch Nokia n800 Internet Tablet
No bluetooth No Multi-touch interface
No email or IM app Doesn't sync calendar & contacts with PC
Stuck with iTunes Can't switch from landscape to portait
Can't install apps No Cool factor
Can only stream YouTube videos   

 

Pros

iPod Touch Nokia n800 Internet Tablet
Multi-touch interface Includes FM Radio, GPS, IM, & Skype
Switch from landscape to portrait Can stream live TV, movies, & YoutTube
Cover-Flo Has bluetooth and connects to other bluetooth devices
Slimmer and better design than n800 Fully customizable & uses 2 SD cards for flash memory storage (up to 8 gigs).
 Is sexy as Hell! Has a full on screen keyboard & camera for video conferencing 

 

I had my Nokia n800 for nearly 2 months and I must say this device meets all my needs. It fits in my pockets and I can browse the web, chat via Instant Message, Skype, or watch live TV as long as I have a Internet connection. Not to mention, GPS to boot. However, I just can't get over the coolness of the iPod touch. It's hella sexy with the multi-touch and cover-Flo. I would like to use both devices and see which one I like best but for now I'm sticking with my Nokia n800.
