Re: Maemo Mapper files
Because MM doesn't use vector maps, it cannot plan routes without a connection to the internet either, just FYI.
Basically MM is really just "paint" with different "backgrounds". This is an...

Re: Noise Cancellation?
WHat if you were to use the microphone on the provided headphones? That's only like a foot away from the headphones...maybe a little easier.

Re: My little review of N810
One of the great disservices of communities like this is that people tend to "oversell" devices because they like them so much.
It's a great little toy for doing GPSish stuff, and internet...

Re: My little review of N810
Did you do ANY research before you bought this thing?
I don't think that working with office docs and sending e-faxes is an advertised feature of the n8x0.
I think it's a perfectly reasonable...

Re: Wi-Fi speed on N800??
It has 802.11g, which would theoretically give you 54 Mbps.
In the real world, you will never see anything approaching those speeds. 20ish Mbps is pretty much it for g. N might get you closer to...

Re: Palm user: is it time to move to the Nxxx?
If the device works, even if the GPS isn't the best, to me it's still much better than carrying around two things, having to charge two things etc. Nothing is stopping you from getting a separate...

Re: Palm user: is it time to move to the Nxxx?
When my Treos die, I just take them back to where I got them and get them replaced. It takes all of 30 minutes, and 0 dollars. Saying a palmtop computer shouldn't have a cell phone built in is like...

Re: Palm user: is it time to move to the Nxxx?
I've been through maybe 5 treos (3 650s and 2 755ps) in the last few years. That being said, I've found treos to be fairly rugged. The things that broke mine were hardware problems that were all...

Re: Palm user: is it time to move to the Nxxx?
So you'd rather haul around two devices (a phone and an internet tablet) than just one?
Personally, if my treo could browse the real web properly, had one more SDHC slot, ran an OS that allowed...

Re: Palm user: is it time to move to the Nxxx?
After a month with my n800, I've come to the opinion that it makes a great companion for a treo, but it doesn't replace one. it certainly offers a much better web browsing experience (mostly), and I...
