Very nice review. I mostly agree with all your points except the bit
about font management. The N800 (and the 700) both use fontconfig,
which is way better than the old X11 font model. If you drop a font
with the unicode characters you need to $HOME/.fonts you'll be able to
read CJK (for example) web sites immediately. Not an excuse to not
ship a decent font in the first place, but the infrastructure is
there.
Cheers, Xan

After using the N800 for a week or two, which of course qualifies me
as Knowing All Things About It :-), I've thrown together a web page
describing various places the N800's GUI could be improved, and some
ugly bugs, from the perspective of a Newton developer (myself). As I
like the N800 I tried to be fair and reasonable, exorcising most of
my snark, but sometimes I couldn't help myself, sorry.
Before I made the site public, I thought I'd post it to the
developers' group and ask for some comments, agreements, and
disagreements. The site URL may change afterwards.
