A few questions:

1) How is the BT keyboard support?
2) Is there a decent word processor or notes program (like AbiWord, or even Tomboy)?

The BT works with Nokia's BT keyboard (many reports online show this). I have two BT keyboards here, but they don't use the normal BT profile, so I can't test them.

Regarding word processor, no, you will have to wait for a port of AbiWord for the N800 (currently, only an alpha version for the N770 exists). There is a "notes" application though if you want to write stuff. And there is the GPE TODO to manually install if you want a to-do list.

Shame there's not a decent WP program for it yet. I wanted to get one to take notes at the university without having to lug the laptop around.

On the other hand, there's always Vim ;)
