Well, I have not dicovered enything I could do on my PDA that I cannot do on my N810 yet and that is only using programs that are easily downloaded from standard places. So what kind of functionality are you talking about that is missing?
You are right the synchonization is a problem but it seems to be on the way to be solved. I could not synchonize with my Palm PDA since I do not use Windows and the Linux programs was not working at least not when I bought the PDA.
Since you are connected all the time to the new through WiFi or through bluetooth via your phone you do not have to have all the funcitonality locally. I started to look at how to put the whole WikiPedia on my N810 today but after while I decided not to bother with it since I always have net.
