The N810 gets a wonderful plug on WebAlert (online tech show), and is reviewed quite favorably against the iPod touch.

Are you excited? The Canola 2 teaser site is online! Get a flash presentation of how Canola 2 is going to look and feel on every generation of Internet Tablet (Nokia 770, N800, and N810) a mere 9 days from this post.

Go here to view the site: http://openbossa.indt.org.br/canola/index2.html

The original Blog post announcing this site is here: http://www.marceloeduardo.com/blog/d...er-site-online

Additionally, you can also take a look at the Canola Picture Viewer details by clicking here.

I'm extremely impressed with the Canola team. They have created a great product keeping in mind the user-experience rather than just focussing on the products functions. The result is a very slick and user-friendly media tool that users can understand with little problem. I also LOVE the website, it's stylish and comprehensive so you don't have to go searching through changelogs to figure out what the software does. I wish more software were designed in this fasion. Kudos, chaps!

Ars Techica has reviewed the N810. Though I haven't read it myself, ars reviews tend to be quite good. It's worth a read:

Got PIM? From the site:

Quote:

Pimlico is a suite of lightweight Personal Information Management (PIM) applications designed primarily for handheld and mobile devices.

It seems as if the N800 version is available, so a OS2008 release shouldn't be far behind.

Potential "case" for N810 until something custom is designed:

Retail, this did seem pricey, I got mine in a clearance bin at my local store, $22. Which tends to mean it won't be on the shelves everywhere. I wonder what it was originally designed for...I'm pretty sure it pre-dated the n810.

As of today it's still snug and holding up tough.

I got this case for my new N810 http://www.overstock.com/Clothing/Multicolored-Leather-Handheld-Case/69361/product.html

Fit's great, looks sharp, $14.99 with free shipping

I wrote a first impressing blog post which tries to be a review:
N810 Handheld Computer

I bought the N810 to replace my Zaurus. Although the keyboard is not as good as on the Z, I believe the Internet Tablet won't let me down.

A word of caution - before getting too excited about the N810. Look at all the posts regarding problems with it. I for one cannot install a single application that all the videos and literature and links say it's supposed to. I can't install the camera application, not FM radio, not Skype, not anything. I just bought this N810 and have upgraded to the latest OS, but it simply does not do what it was advertised to do.
Unless someone can help me with this, anyone who wants it can have it. It's junk at this point.
