My New Toy (Nokia N800 Internet Tablet)

Submitted by on Friday, September 7, 2007 – 12:08 am4 Comments |

Well, I just received my newest gadget today run on, yep you guessed it, Linux. It is the Nokia N800 Internet Tablet. It is not a mobile phone but you can make calls using VoIP with Skype. You even get a three-month voucher from Skype to make Computer to Telephone calls icon smile My New Toy (Nokia N800 Internet Tablet) One reason why I bought the Nokia N800 was because I tired of hauling my Thinkpad on my motorbike when I needed to meet people. The Nokia N800 fits into my motorbike seat. No need to worry about someone stealing my laptop now icon smile My New Toy (Nokia N800 Internet Tablet)

You can get a GPS kit for the Nokia N800. I will purchase it later when I travel more outside of Vietnam. It would be nice to find a way to mount this device on my motorbike (just pray nobody swipes it).

Here are a couple good reviews for the Nokia N800:

I am not sure when it will be available in Vietnam.
