True, but they have a big GUI. Most GPS units have everything big (maps, speed, compass, road names, roads, etc..).

Then don't show a basic lack of knowledge of the thread you're in. Howzat for basic participation in a discussion?

I was hunting around via Google to see if anyone else had noticed the Emergency Calls mention in the SDK. Not only did I find nothing, I also found confirmation that it is DEFINITELY not for VoIP. timeless was reciting the text on the N810 box on IRC and it clearly states, "Warning: Emergency calls are not supported."

Interesting.

Earthly Ambassador from Planet Qole, I think is the right title. Protocolar details still murky, pending HHGTG update.

At some point, devices that were simply 'phones' stopped existing (outdoors at least).

Telephone:

Phone:

What we are getting nowadays is something else entirely, even if it CAN make voice calls. The lines have been blurred my friends.

No more stylus keyboard -> more space on screen -> smaller screen -> same space, less power consumption, more portable.

Thank you very much! Um... I think. Maybe. Yes, I'm sure you were being complimentary.

Actually I am a prototype created by a mad scientist from an alternate reality. When she realised what she had created, she tried to destroy me, but she ended up destroying herself and her laboratory, while sending me through a dimensional rift to your planet.

Jay: I picked up some sweet telephony hardware in Berlin when I was there for the last Maemo Summit:
