| The Nokia N810 Internet Tablet is the third model in this companies series of
| traditional handhelds, and the best so far. It is the first with integrated
| GPS capabilities and a slide-out QWERTY keyboard.
|
| This Linux-based device lets you connect to the nearest Wi-Fi hotspot with
| 802.11b/g, and if that isn't enough, it can connect via Bluetooth to a mobile
| phone. You can then access the Web with the best mobile browser currently
| available, watch streaming video, make VoIP calls, and much more.

| Like the N800, the N810 delivers one of the best experiences in mobile web
| browsing on the market. The new browser that ships with OS2008 is truly
| outstanding, and most of the rest of OS2008 is pretty darn impressive too.
| For Linux enthusiasts as well as regular users, Nokia's Maemo-based software
| platform offers power, flexibility, and ease of use.

Nokia N810: unboxing and first impressions
,----[ Quote ]
| My shiny new Nokia N810 Internet Tablet was delivered yesterday. After
| fondling it for most of the day, I'm relatively impressed. The N810 is a bit
| smaller than the N800, which makes it more comfortable to use and easier to
| tote around in a pocket.

Nokia N800 As an EBook Reader Using FBReader
,----[ Quote ]
| Though N800 is an Internet Tablet, it can serve as a very good ebook reader
| too, for those casual/semi-serious readers who don’t want to invest in a
| stand-alone ebook reader. At its screen size and resolution, reading ebooks
| is extremely pleasing on the eye. It supports HTML, PDF, etc formats out of
| the box; but what truly makes it such a good candidate to be used as an ebook
| reader is the excellent(read Free) ebook reader software available for it
| called FBReader.

Review: Nokia N800 now with Skype
,----[ Quote ]
| While I enjoyed using the Nokia N800 prior to the firmware upgrade, once
| having Skype installed made the unit made the Nokia N800 an almost
| indispensable tool carry around. Having the ability to make phone calls
| anywhere in the world from any location that has wireless internet was neat.
| Furthermore with a SkypeIn plan you can easily receive phone calls from just
| about any place in the world that has wifi. The addition of having Skype made
| the Nokia N800 a near cellphone like device.
