Hi all,
I really would like a N770 but would like a few questions answered before i fork out the £!
I see many uses for this as a personal device, but also in my job role. i would therefore like to brand the tablet with our corporate logo on the desktop, ie, like changing the background image....Is this possible? and easy to do like in windows XP?
I would like to access my exchange email (NOT via webmail though) is it possible to sync our exchange server with the tablet?
Can i connect the tablet to a projector for presentations in a meeting environment?
Can i have MSN messenger and Skype installed and working?

Just a few questions for you there...thanks for any help
/Jon

The answer to the first question is yes, and no for all others. Sorry.

MSN messenger (text only) is possible through Gaim or a Jabber proxy.

Syncing with Exchange is theoretically possible, and if you've got standards-based email access through your Exchange server (i.e. POP3 or IMAP), these are supported out of the box.

For calendar, todo items and contacts, you'll either need to invest in DejaDesktop; or look at opensync alongside the GPE PIM suite.

HTH,

Andrew

You could also use VNC and use all of those apps natively.

You could also link MSN messenger via gTalk

No, but there is a Gizmo Project VOIP phone, which is a standard SIP phone so it can call (for free) most other open SIP phones worldwide - and it can can have a free incoming number from ipkall, makes it cheaper than Skype.

Not much use I know if you're in a company that currently uses only the non-standard Skype phones, but if what you really want is any VOIP phone, it's available.
