Re: future NIT form factor - Dpads?

Thank you, now I know what's been (slightly) bothering me about many maemo UIs: some of the toolbar buttons at the bottom of the screen.
Take deleting a file in file manager as an example. First you...

Re: future NIT form factor - Dpads?

I did, and it didn't. Style guides completely miss the point. Designing a good UI is hard enough, doing it in advance, for nearly every possible application and on paper is nigh impossibe. But that's...

Re: future NIT form factor - Dpads?

I wouldn't put it this way but I can certainly see great merit in *forcing* people to think outside the conventional mouse+keyboard+screen box of HCI. That just doesn't work on such a small device...

Re: future NIT form factor - Dpads?

Not quite. The N800 has been out of stock for ages and EOL for a while now. At the moment, there is no choice.


They are? I really must be a mutant. ;) The point is that the paradigm of using hw...

Re: future NIT form factor - Dpads?

Hell you're fast ... Others twitch-game, Texrat twitch-posts :-)

I know that such keyboards exist, but apparently the integration with the Nxx0 isn't good enough for many people or they wouldn't...

Post Thoughts on the N800 form factor

I finally got a (used) N800 a while ago and wanted to share my thoughts about the hardware and the (future of the) IT form factor in general. Hopefully this isn't too much of a hijacking ... BEWARE...

Re: Where is HSDPA?

That's exactly it ... Will, might ... my point was, HSDPA is deployed and mainstream in Europe now. Nobody needs a tablet with wireless connectifity that might be available in 5 years time. I'd...

Where is HSDPA?

The question is not "Why WIMAX", but "Why not HSDPA?" Especially for an Internet Tablet.

What's with the "platform" idea?

I'm not a 770 user or an N800 one for that matter - I've been toying with the idea of getting one for quite a while, though ...
