'The whole interface is based on Adobe's Flash while a recent press release
along with the claim of "full HTML browsing" makes us speculate that the
phone possibly uses the Opera web browser -- possibly on top of Linux.'

Forget iPhone, hail OpenMoko, the true revolution

| ...I would rather wait for OpenMoko to become available for purchase

| product, it is like an awesome looking golden cage. I always

A Zune Phone? Hah, What a Joke!

,----[ Quote ]
| You see, I find this to be quite amusing. Here Microsoft is reportedly
| in the beginning stages of creating their own version of a Zunes
| martphone, but it's already being speculated that Windows Mobile won't
| make an appearance even though it already contains the functions that
| a smartphone would need. I get the fact that a Zune phone will
| probably be targeted to an audience that doesn?t necessarily want
| to get caught up in all of the nitty gritty functions of a
| smartphone, but if Microsoft doesn?t use its own mobile operating
| system on its own mobile device, then how are we supposed to take
| Windows Mobile seriously?

Reviewers converge on new Nokia Internet tablet

,----[ Quote ]
| The N800 shipped Jan. 6 without a peep -- let alone a press release
| -- from Nokia. Nonetheless, the device seems to be attracting more
| interest, at least from the fourth estate, than did the arguably
| more revolutionary 770 Internet tablet from which it evolved.
