"...The 770 tablet appears to have only a single one-eighth-inch headphone jack, but the jack actually supports mobile phone headsets with microphones...."

Didn't know that =)

One little "bug" I hope they fix is the ability to add more icons in the top system tray. Right now there is a limited number of icons you can have up there, and I am always having to decide which ones I can live without.

Maybe they can hide the inactive ones like in WinXP, or have some type of scrolling feature. It's tricky because of the fact that the title bar is right there...

They've said "June" and "Q2" - that's pretty damn specific :-)

i.e. less than 6 weeks!

Depends on what calander they are using really. If they mean the physical quaters, then you're right. However if they are talking Fiscal year, then April - June is the first Quarter and Jan-March is the fourth.

Either way the word June was put in there.

no google
 
I'm in Phoenix, have the same setup as Thoughtfix pretty much. I tried your settings, wap.voicestream.com and getmorespeed.voicestream.com, still don't get google. They must really be blocking it in some states. I just don't understand why. Anyone have experience setting up a proxy server on their Windows box at home to use with the 770?

While they're on the right track with Google Talk (based on open standards), they missed this one completely.

I agree. Another great moment of "corporate publicity gone awry" was trying to watch the videos of the 770 press conference with the 770.

Offered formats were WMA and Real.

I must admit I didn't try, but what happened when you tried to view the RealVideo stream on the 770?

Personally, I transcoded it into a 20M AVI file suitable for the 770 so I could watch it offline.

On the subject of the presentation, Nokia could certainly use some Apple-inspired launch hype and professionalism :-/

Thanks for that video, being on dial-up makes streaming very challenging.
