But all those gadgets will not fit into one pocket.
The P800 is several gadgets in one package... that's what makes it valuable.
@arnoldc
I think epocware already came out with an app for the P800.
It is the P800 version of "handysafe" (initially for the N9210 and 7650). But I don't think it's a worthwhile app.
Their nokia apps are also limited at this point.
...i've never owned a PDA before and this may be one of my prospects. Im don't think i need the programs that you are looking for. I'm just waiting for the price to go down, for some worthwhile apps to come out, and a few paychecks in the coming months.

Is the Word, excel reader able to edit and manipulate the file? Or is it a plain reader?

Ok, other than the new Palm TT, iPaq, and new Sony Clie NX70... what other PDA's are better???? And I'm not talking about apps since these are 3rd party.
I'd get the P800 just for Jot! Jot ALWAYS left Graffiti in the dust. (Jot, BTW, is a Symbian program that was out back in the late 90's) I believe handwriting recognition should recognize NORMAL handwriting, not some weird scribble pattern.

And for those of you who complain about the price...check the price of the LATEST PDAs as well... How much is the new Clie NX70? The NEW iPaq? How much to add the GSM jacket for the iPaq? How much for the Bluetooth Memorystick for the Clie? And to those people who say "Well, I don't use Bluetooth." or "I don't need an mp3 player in my phone." ... NO ONE IS FORCING YOU TO BUY THE P800!!!!
Those of us who DO USE those features, we did buy the P800.
It's a FREE MARKET! If you're soooo attached to Graffiti and Palm, then by God... stick with it!!!! OS5 is beautiful on the Palm TT and Clie NXseries (specially on the 320x480 screen)!!! Flash plays great and all!!! The new iPaq is great as well, great screen, Bluetooth, syncs with Outlook just fine! All the
NEW PDAs handle multimedia really well. (The NX70 and iPaq were my other options aside from the P800..the Palm TT is great too cuz it already has BT, but I loved the screen of the Clie more)
Buy what you want! I'm happy with my P800, even after trying out the NX and iPaq cuz surfing on the P800 was a lot easier via GPRS. Besides, if your PDA doesn't have BT built in... you use up your memory slot just for the BT module!

If you surf the web (not wap) thru gprs, how much do you think it will cost? Is it about .50 per Kb? Kung ganun baka naman mahal ang monthly bill.

Yup P0.50/Kb. Did you expect wireless Internet to be free? I can surf the web for free when I'm at home, using Bluetooth and Reqwireless' browser. When I'm out, I surf using GPRS.
Have any fellow P800 owners tried the LIVE CAMERAS link?!??!?! HOLY CRAP!!! The streaming video is sooooooo smooth!!! And I mean, 15fps!!!! This is over Globe's GPRS!!! Live cams in Paris, London and NY! Meanwhile, our local traffic cams are just still photos, updated every minute!

Yup, Mondo, 619 and I got them last Saturday. Got it from Globotel, EXCELLENT place in front of Greenbelt 2, in the Coronado building.
Already got a screen protector for it... emailed the dude who makes Brando screen protectors... gave him the screen specs... he said he'll try to have a P800 protector out in 2 weeks.
Thanks again to mondo for the inside info, and for getting us the first few P800 units!

9210 powerful???? you must be dreamin dude, check & compare.......
I was out on the market looking for an R380e when I got caught in the Sony and Ericsson merger and the phone got cancelled.
I bought the 9210 instead kasi I don't want to carry my laptop with me and then a phone to connect to my emails, web, and create/edit documents from the field. At that time, the R380e didn't come close.
Everything else sa akin bonus na outside of the Office features.
Imagine editing your proposals, spreadsheet, reviewing a Powerpoint presentation, reading your emails, etc. allowing you to work from the field, without a heavy laptop with you. If that is not powerful, probably, you are not that mobile! Kaya nga lang, hindi ready for GPRS ang transmission
Kahit alang bluetooth di naman siya show-stopper kung laptop replacement ang priorities mo.
When your customer asks of you to give them a price, for something, and instead of bringing out a thick folder, you bring out your 9210 and re-compute the proposal, that is neat.
Now, imagine if all of that were made possible on a P800 with landscape orientation (ala R380)! Sayang sabi ng SE naghahanap pa sila ng gagawa noon based on the guys I exchanged emails with since I asked about the R380e replacement.
And if the batteries can support you - getting entertained with MP3 while working on a proposal and discussing it on the phone with someone else, that is neat.
Now imagine if Nokia shrinks the next generation 92xx with keyboard intact and everything else that the P800 has, that is doubly neat.

The 9210 was great when it went out. You can do the same on your pda and phone combo - and more. But i don't agree that these devices can be called as laptop replacements. Not at this stage, getting close but not quite.
