The Nokia devices are at an entirely different price point. The Gigabyte MIDs appear to be going for ~$600 without a service plan. The N810 costs half that.
I couldn't find numbers on battery life, but knowing that ARM processors get significantly better performance/watt, the Nokia's likely have a much better battery life, as well.
