Hey guys ...

Just want to know what you think about this...

I like the idea, that pdfs are just cutted in their height not in their width.

Sort of a limousine version of the regular one, eh ? And you can fit two or three batteries inside too :-)

Now that's what I call "extended" battery life. You sure wouldn't want to mess with someone with one of those. Looks like a leathal weapon to me.

Is that a nokia 77000 in your pants or are you happy to see me?

I REALLY think that this would be a good idea - with just a minor modification: not that wide, but also higher. Just a bigger screen (U know, I'm getting older). Just repeating from a provious post:

One thing ... which I could imagine - and would recommend to Nokia - is a device which would electrically be identical, but just have a bigger screen (double the diagonal = 4 times the area. Same resolution, just bigger pixels). Same look. Possibly two batteries instead of one, but no other extras. Then sell it at exactly the same price as the 770.

Why that:
Diversify for different user populations without getting into trouble with incompatibility issues.
Relatively easy to develop (electrically identical). Bigger screens are lower tech, might even be cheaper in purchasing. Manufacturing would also not be that different (well, somewhat, for the mechanics...)

If you want a bigger 770, I suggest you look for a second-hand Fujitsu Stylistic 3400 or a Siemens SimPad SL4. Both are 800x600, both can be Linux-ified and both are rather good computers. Their battery life is not as good as the 770's, though.

Y'know... you *could* just rotate the unit 90° and view it in portrait format.

I do have a Fujitsu P2110 (Windows / Linux dual boot) and I like it. (screen is 1280 x 768, 9 inch;, 3 pounds). But it was considerably more expensive. And: software-wise, it's not a 1:1 clone of the 770. My idea here was to introduce diversity without major development effort and possible inconsistencies at Nokia.
