I know I said I am looking to get a Sharp C3100 in another thread, used to have one a couple of years ago. However I have been looking at the Nokia N810, which would be better? The main thing is the C3100 is a whole lot harder to find, and I have found the N810 is a bit less expensive. I am looking to buy within the next couple of weeks, I could use a little insight here.

SL-C3100/SL-C3200:
Pros: Free CF slot and full-size SD slot, internal HDD (but now comparable with Micro-SD cards in N810), well protected display when closed. Cons: No internal Wi-Fi, no internal Bluetooth (both needs to be extrernal). N810: Pros: 800 pixels horizontally, more memory, camera, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth. Cons: Much worse keyboard (one row less, when pressin upper row, your fingers touch the top part edge). |

Seeing as I'm the potential seller this may be biased but my two cents are valid as I've owned both of them.
Cons: Much worse keyboard (one row less, when pressin upper row, your fingers touch the top part edge). This was a HUGE problem for me. It's actually been a turn off to me for most sliders in general. The Aigo and the Sony Mylo also suffered a little from this problem, but on the N810 it was terrible. In terms of productivity, I could do just about anything on the Zaurus, but the N810 only got use if I wanted to check email. Having large storage space available in the Zaurus is a great feature, even more so when you consider modding with a larger CF card in place of the microdrive. I have done this on a Z3200 and have a 16GB card there. The N810 has 2gb (I think?) internal storage, though expansion via mini sd (ugh) is possible. |
