Thanks for the suggestions! I guess I'll have to just buy one and try it out. I suppose that, as usual, it's the dissatisfied customers that write the reviews.
I'm not sure that an iPod Touch will adequately replace my Zod for PIM management or ebook reading, either (my n800 sure didn't do it, although it's great for web browsing), but I can't stay stuck in 2005 forever, and if worst comes to worst I hear the App Store has lots of games.
