Is it worth it?
 

besides nicer viewing of youtube videos, is it worth it to upgrade from 07 to 08? it's just a pain trying to figure it out and I'm contemplating whether or not to keep going with it

Re: Is it worth it?
 

Sticking with OS2007 is like sticking with Windows 98 over Windows 2000. There's just no reason for it.

OS2007 is the past and OS2008 is the future.

Yep, upgrade. Just the increase to 400mhz processing speed should be enough to upgrade. Plus, it looks cooler, IMO. :)

hmm.. thanks :)

yes, upgrade

I find the browsing experience in os2008 quite slow and jerky compared to os2007. Websites load much slower in os2008. Any explanation for this?

I am waiting for the dust to clear. My N800 with 2007 OS works for me. My web browser works fine, the built-in mail program works fine. The only complaint is that I upgraded to Canola2 and it won't play a lot of my videos. I uninstalled ver 1, rebooted and installed Canola2. Like I said 2007 works for me but your miliage may vary. I am always slow to upgrade. I only upgraded to Xp last year. ; >

Yes flash works great, adblock in the browser (think theres only a chinook version) actually works and blocks ads from sites, modest shows lots of promise as an email client (apart from the fact that it does not render external images as yet) and speed overall is pretty acceptable. Not to mention it just looks so much better than 2007, time to take the plunge and move on - vista/win xp is like comparing apples to oranges when looking at the internet tablet...

I only had experience with 2007HE on the 770 as once I got my n800 I instantly upgraded and have not regretted the decision at all!

This was just funny to me. You can tell we're not Windows users often around here...

2000 was not the upgrade to 98. 2000 was the upgrade in the NT line of Windows, as M.E. was the upgrade to 98 SE and XP after that :)

But none of the matters, smart guys like us probably have Ubuntu or OSX on our machines :D
