"N800 Photos Posted a.k.a. Thwarted by My NDA
Sometimes being tight with a company is a double edged sword. Take the recent unveiling of the Nokia N800. I’d been using the device daily for a month but couldn’t post the images or do an unboxing because I am under NDA to the company; that’s the admission price I paid to have access to the N800 before anyone else in North America."

Hi Speculatrix,

Yeah, bought one on the day it became available here in North America.  Took some getting used to compared to the Z but overall a very sweet device.
I put a 4GB SD card into it and the unit worked right off the hop.

If you have the time I 'm sure a number of us would appreciate a mini-review.

yeah, I would like to see a three-way comparison... living with the Nokia 800, 770 and zaurus

covering web browsing, voip telephony, media playback, networking with wifi and bluetooth, developing your own applications, and general use + battery life.

Aye, this is something I would really love to see as well.  Especially considering the processor speed on the nokia is not really comparable in mhz

All of that info (and more) is readily available here :
http://www.internettablettalk.com/

Of course they talk about as much of the Zaurus there than we of the Nokia here, but I guess one can compare with his own experience :-)

Any clues on battery life?  Nokia say 3 hours of use, which ain't exactly hot.

After reading some of the reviews and posts in internettablettalk, I got a vague impression that N800 can run debian packages. Can anyone confirm that?

I reviewed the N800 here:

http://slashdot.org/~macemoneta/journal/

Alternate locations:

http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/blog/m...N800_Experience
http://macemoneta.blogspot.com/

Overall very interesting, but the software catalog is small with little change.  Without an infusion of developers, this product will fade away.

hmm, very interesting. whilst I was initially very excited, I don't think I'll be trading my z 3100 for an n800 until a combo slide-on hard-case mini keyboard is available for the N800.
