The N810 reportedly has better battery life. of around 4 hours. were
the N800 has around 2 hours. I would wait and see about the N810, it
has to have a better camera then the N800.

The soft keyboard means you are not going to want to do alot of
typing. N810 also has a ambient light sensor, it looks like the keys
light up..
