I must be living right.
I started a C2 download at 9:00 yesterday morning (EST), had to restart it once but it was installed by 9:30. Ten minutes later I was playing Billy Talent or (note or, not and!) viewing photos straight from the SD card from my camera.
I showed it to some folks at my wife's company after I had demo'd the the tablet running their very intensive Javascript and Flash-based e-learning application. (This app never worked on a 770 with Opera or MicroB, or on OS2007 MicroB so OS2008 MicroB is a big improvement). The VP looked at the N800 ruefully and asked what he was going to do with his iPod. How much? $200 from Dell. What, really?
I think I could have sold a bag load of them right there and then.
Nokia/INdT needs to get Canola finished as soon as possible, solve the repo problem and start mass-
marketing this sucker. They are so close!
Anyway, my gut reactions to C2 were:
- Wow, then
- Can C2 be an alternate platform to Hildon? I want to be able to get at the main consumer-oriented stuff from this interface: web, email, voip...
- Cover art. I know it is just top show stuff but Apple has shown that top show is important to the mass market. At least show any pics I put in a music folder. When I am playing music then create a default slide-show of any pics in the same folder as the music playing.
- I want to be able to run a slide-show from my photos at the same time as playing my music.
- Equalizer please.
- Auto-leveling for sound please.
INdT: Muito obrigado
