First Post With My Nokia N800

It’s been three days since I got my N800. I’m am still trying to find comfort when using this device for text entries (like this post). Screen keyboard is not my thing since I am used to Qwerty keyboard like what my Palm Treo 650 have.

Misconceptions. Like what other N800 users who blogged about their gadget, this device is NOT A PHONE. This is more like a laptop companion. N800 device as well as Nokia 770 are called Internet Tablet. The wireless capability is really good. It can detect WLAN accesss point better than my laptop.

Power Computing. I must say that this device is a complete powerful system. It is Linux under the hood courtesy of Debian, SSH client and server courtesy of Dropbear, VOIP functionality provided by Skype, IRC and instant messaging using Pidgin (GAIM), Wordpress client using MaemoWordPy, web browsing using Opera. FM tuning is an added bonus!

This is definitly handy and lightweight than carrying laptop. I’m keeping my faith on this device. Should I say, “If it’s Linux it must be fun!”?

Loving Nokia N800 Internet Tablet

I finally got my very own Nokia N800, brought from my sister direct from Amazon.com. So far, I’m loving it. The screen is crystal clear! Im currently figuring out how to upgrade the firmware to the latest version in order to get the latest feature enhancement like Skype and Flash 9 support. I’m loving it so far.

About The Device

Nokia N800 is an internet tablet that is powered by Linux. The geek in me thinks that if it’s Linux it must be good - to hack :) I sure hope to find this device useful. I’ve been tired of carrying my laptop so I’m settling on this not-so-little device to surf the web while drinking latte:) By the way, an on-going collaboration among N800 hackers are currently porting Linux applications to this device. Visit maemo.org for more info.

Now for picture-loving people.. here’s my device. Sorry about the quality of photos. This was taken using my Treo 650 camera. Quality is not that great.Photo 081307 009
