I like the Onyx series very much (don't own one yet) and I am still considering the 1640i for @home.
The 820i is a very interesting unit but way too big and heavy (almost twice as much as the 802vlz3 for example).
I need a unit which is selfcontained and not too heavy - I'll have to go by public transport.

  Thanks, Michael.
