Though you were going by out-of-the-box to a degree, if you include MPlayer media playback is much smoother. I often use it with rencoded videos if I don't want to stream/won't be on wifi.

I have to admit, I was biased in voting. I already own a n800, which I bought in lieu of a pda/iPhone, and would have been torn if the Touch was out when I made my purchase. I prefer my n800 now for the screen size (used to read a ton of ebooks on my T|E, so high resolution is important) and open nature, but the size of the Touch is mighty tempting (though the n800 is still fairly pocketable, the speakers add a good bit of bulk.)

Actually, that's a nice plus of the n800: I've used it both as radio and internet radio quite a bit and the speakers make it perfect for this. No more having to hunt down my smaller speakers or use a laptop for bed/couchside radio.
