Aaron takes an in-depth look at the Nokia Lumia 800, the manufacturer's flagship Windows Phone device that's being billed by them as the "first real Windows Phone" device.  Announced at Nokia World last month, the specifications list is decent, with a  1.4 GHz single-core CPU, 3.7-inch AMOLED display with Nokia's ClearBlack technology, 8-megapixel camera with 720p HD video recording, and Windows Phone 7.5 (Mango) - though interestingly enough, it doesn't include a front-facing camera. 

It's not coming to the US (at least not right now), but it works on AT&T's 3G/4G (HSPA+) networks, and EDGE on T-Mobile.  Is it worth buying if you're overseas, and importing if you live in the United States?  We'll take a look.  Part 1 of 2.
