good portable wi-fi device?

[Baba booey]

Let's just put it this way...I can't stand my PSP for wi-fi. No touchscreen + keyboard=terrible, and the memory fills up too quick("turn memory conserve ON").
I've been looking for something new but not too expensive. I want something that if possible I can install apps or access online downloads or use Youtube or Veoh. Something with good battery life is important. Size is not too important because the screen has to be big enough. Emulation is fun.

So far I've looked these things:
Nokia 770 internet table
UTStarcomm XV6700(HTC Apache.used to own one as a phone for a short time)
HP IPAQ 6515a, h4350, etc.
If a pocket pc doesn't have the built in keyboard, I could buy one for it(bluetooth, right?).
what would you say my best bet is?
thanks in advance.

I can't believe you haven't thought of the iPod Touch after all that.

too much money. All of those things I mentioned are probable 130 tops.

How about the Archos Gen 5 devices? You'll have to buy the Opera browser plug-in for $30, bringing the total for the low-end configuration to $240, about $40 cheaper than the iPod touch.

N800 or so, sounds perfect imo.

The iPod Touch is perfect, but you said it's too expensive

The Nokia N800 seems perfect

or if you want to save even more money the older Nokia N770.

I heard the screen on the internet tablets>>>the screen on the iTouch.
But can you do the installing apps on the internet tablets? or youtube and veoh?

What about the 3G iPhone for $199? And I suppose you could grab an original iPhone for $150 or less pretty quick. It's the best mobile device I've ever used; many seem to agree.

Jailbreak it and just use it as an iPod/Wi-Fi/PDA device. No contract, no monthly bill.

1)I'm not looking for an mp3 player...I have a Cowon D2 and Sony A728
2) I don't need the PDA Functions.
It's still 200$!
and don't you need a credit card to buy one?? I'm 17

 

[Baba booey]

can anyone tell me what the N800 has over the N770? Thanks...I wanna see why, if at all, the price difference is worth it.
