I snapped a screen shot of maemo mapper downloading… and then uploaded to Flickr from the N800!
If you have a bluetooth GPS (I use the Nokia LD-1W) you can get a mobile GPS with Google Maps running pretty easily. The main limitations are the speed of your connection (you download as you go, [...]

Just opened my addressbook and got this seriously ridiculous dialog…
I hit escape and it went away, but clearly something was going on that did not work out. I [...]

Yesterday I looked down and saw I was actively using three systems each with a keyboard and screen.

(just out of view to the right is a Nokia N93 and I took this with the N73)
I had taken a shot previous and I think I’ve reeled in my tech addition somewhat… though I am [...]

Luxist points to a pretty slick RFID based, wine catalog system that is really a tech demo more than a full product, but still show how handy something like the Nokia Tablet might be based on it’s small size, and bright touch screen. There’s no RFID reader or sensor inside it today, so this [...]

While the Nokia N800 is a mobile powerhouse it is also extremely simple and fun to use.
My three year old daughter Hannah honed her skills with the computer and mouse in the last week and has quickly begun to advance to mastering stylus control and some new applications.
Here’s a quick video of her enjoying the [...]

Andy Abramson fires a few shots at P2P video which I unfortunately agree with given where we are with our current infrastructure…

So imagine what happens with video which requires even more bandwidth than Voice. Let’s face it, it’s one thing to be the only person on a T-1, but a shared pipe that’s got everyone [...]

So I finally figured out the simplest way to get Google Calendar info locally on the Tablet… It’s relatively simple given the amount of effort I thought was required. You do not need to use a third party system like ScheduleWorld or GooSync (which does not work), you simply subscribe to your Calendar’s [...]

I had read about but was struggling to recall an app that could easily sync content from iTunes to a mass storage device (mounted memory card for example) and finally re-discovered SyncTunes today!
Through the magic of this application I can now VERY easily sync content to either memory card in the Nokia N800 which is [...]

We are currently working on improving the N800 software for the forthcoming new software releases. I believe we can improve performance in many areas. Also, the overall stability and quality is on our agenda, of course. So expect to see N800 getting better [...]

Nokia N800 Main screen…  Internet Search, RSS, Clock, Media Player and Web Shortcut applets all loaded up. 
My decision to pick up the Nokia N800 was not something I considered for a long time and in fact was pretty spur of the moment. When my 770 toasted itself on Friday afternoon, I immediately began [...]

I was just attempting to kill my Gmail account which had downloaded many hundreds of messages through POP filling the 770’s memory and …

This is so not good. I am not even sure how to try fixing it as there’s nothing to look at other than a nasty stripped screen. This sucks. [...]

Fred notes a problem and recommends a solution for sharing music regardless of how you choose to listen…
Some people use Napster. Some use Rhapsody. Some use Yahoo Music. I think these services should get together and let their users “roam” onto other networks. Let’s say my brother uses Napster and he wants to send me [...]
