It's a pretty good advertising gimmick. If the blender can survive blending some of the stuff he puts in it, normal food stuff will be no problem. Blenders are the biggest replacement kitchen gadget in my house. I still like the video of them trying to return the Sony handy cam they blended.

I didn't want to comment on this but I will.

BOTTOM LINE -------

Iphone is a cell phone - some say smart some don't bottom line its a phone with phone features.

N800 is a Internet Tablet - Now this is where it gets confusing. What is an internet tablet. It allows you to surf the internet. Its main purpose.

Yes the iphone has a different interface - some pluses there.

Bottom line again - price and features!

NAME ONE SINGLE THING THAT THE IPHONE CAN DO THAT THE NOKIA CAN'T!

I can't name one. (except maybe play Apple itunes purchases DRM). Obviously nothing can because its copyrighted. Go ahead I dare any iphone person to name something.

Line up idiots in droves to buy it?

Suck money out of their pockets faster than a Californian ex-wife?

Make aforementioned idiots believe in earnest that Jesus used one?

Make me go <spit!> everytime I'm forced to mention its name?

Connect to a GSM network.

Fit in a small pocket.

Charge from USB.

Take 2-megapixel pictures.

Detect physical rotation and proximity to screen.

Detect multiple-finger presses (although thinking about it, the Nokia can distinguish stylus from thumb and I think the 800 is pressure-sensitive, so that doesn't really count).

I suspect that some of its UI effects (shrinking and cross-fading) may not be implementable either (partly because the 770/800 have more pixels to process). I can't remember if Canola does anything comparable.


I'm sure someone will tell me that the Nokia can connect to a cellphone and be hacked to charge from USB, but if we go down that route, this might turn into a long thread!

It started as a totally "moot" thread...

...so why make it short!
