Re: OK, so what is your next gotta have tech toy?
I sat with my finger poised over the "Buy N810" button for a long time but I could just never do it. (I think the lack of a capacitive touch screen and the video bandwidth "issue" were the reasons,...

Re: New Port: Descent 1
Imagine this if the tablets had accelerometers. (Think Nokmote or ShakerRacer).

Made by HTC (maybe):

Re: N82 for the blind
Very cool. If they can do image->text->speech you would think that image->text->translation (a la Babelfish) would be possible too. That would be all types of awesome for traveling. Nokia should...

Re: Comparing built-in GPS with Holux M1000
Weird that ajax1's opinion (http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showpost.php?p=102410&postcount=1) of the GPS is completely different (except for the "maybe doing a cold start every time" bit). ...
