Direct from Nokia $229 maybe tax and shipping I don't know

I have this and can recommend it. email, gps, mediaplayer, handheld computer. It does not do any of those things better than a dedicated device, but it does most everything well and has a big name behind it. It is an actual computer running linux, http://maemo.org/, so stuff lile skype is availabe.

N810 is discontinued and will be replaced by N900.

What does this have to do with cycling?

It gps according to his post, so it could be used for route mapping, speedometer, etc. I would assume.

Yes it has GPS but you have to pay extra for something called wayfinder.

It also has a wifi that seems as good as a laptops broadcast and reception. So on the road you can email, google, and skype if you have wifi available. It has a built in keyboard. All in all I find it useful.
