Yeah. I have an n10. I really like it. I found the price to be excellent, far and away the cheapest PPC with windows mobile 2003. It is nearly two years since I bought it too and it still holds its own against most PPCs that are 20-30% more expensive than it. (see acer n30, n35, most mid range asus, hp 2110...) The 300 mhz processor still seems to get the job done pretty well.
I had heard that PXA255 processors with the 300mhz clock speed were actually 400 mhz processors that didn't run properly at 400mhz, so instead of being junked were actually underclocked to 300mhz and sold off cheap.
Sounds about right. Mine runs in Chinese ROM. It can do everything my friend's 2210 can do and most of what my friends axim x5 can do too.
The only real drawbacks are the lack of peripheral devices (most notably foldable keyboards with intelligent key layouts). It does crash with some apps and won't run some others, but I haven't found any major programs that I really miss.
Incidentally, I chose the device because it has no wireless connectivity, hence no back doors for people to wander into. I have seen some wild stuff that is possible with Bluetooth that you won't read in news reports...
The other thing that drives me nuts is the fact that I bought a RATOC systems USB host CF card adaptor for more than half what I paid for the n10 and it doesn't work...
Anyone else try out the RATOC USB host?
