I recently got a N800 as well. using info from http://www.internettablettalk.com/ forums I had no problem setting up some 3rd party repos. once set up you can turn the tablet into a more traditional seeming linux platform. plus I never get a dependency issue.

Also I like using a bluetooth keyboard with the tablet if I'm doing anymore then casual web browsing. I really like the stoaway ( http://www.expansys.ca/p.aspx?i=113674 )

btw maemo-mapper is a really nice app even without a gps unit.

oh and you might want to google for the red pill/blue pill easter egg in the app manager. I forget how to do it off the top of my head, but it gives you better access to the package management.
