The Nokia N810 can take an 8 GB micro SDHC Card in its one slot, as I have read, I wonder if it will be able to take advantage of a 16 GB micro SDHC Card when it is available, or is 8 GB its limit in regard to what it can use?


*UPDATE: *This Wikipedia link on the Nokia N810 says: One slot, compatible with miniSD or microSD cards up to 32GB. Here is the link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia_N810




*Also please note this information: {Theoretical maximum capacity, 2048GB.} {That is, 2 terabytes.}

A new SD format, SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity, SD 2.0), allows capacities in excess of 2 GB. SDHC uses the FAT32 file system which supports partition sizes greater than 2 GB. It uses the same form factor as SD, but the SD 2.0 standard in SDHC uses a different memory addressing method (sector addressing vs byte addressing), thus theoretically reaching a maximum capacity of up to 2048GB.

As far as I can remember, we had the same question with N770
I believe 2 GB card wasnt supported for a while, and then there was an update of some sort, I think you needed to reflash the device.. It hasn't been so long but I forgot all about it.

Anyway, I think 16GB will be supported one day, I hope it is supported before DEC cause I'm buying the 8GB on december...

I've read that the SDHC format will work with cards with up to 32 GB, and that any machine that can read SDHC cards will be able to read cards up to 32 GB. So, I'm guessing that by late 2009 or so we'll be seeing 32 GB cards and that the n810 will be able to use them.

With the N800, it was "no SDHC" until the penultimate update (which added SDHC support but is buggy). So it's not a capacity limit per se -- I used a 2 GB SD card and it worked fine, and I believe there are 4 GB non-SDHC cards too.

The Linux kernel in these devices can address any capacity these kind of cards can provide, so any 'up to' limit in marketing material is only there for show, so to speak: Unless there's a tablet-specific bug somewhere (could even be in the hardware) it'll work with anything you can buy.

I will look into synology and get something that worths the money.

For GPS Fix I really didn't have much time but I believe I waited almost 2 mins
but no fix.
The very first fix is the slower one. It can be painfully slow (as long as 20mins!).
So just leave it on a table facing the sky alone and let it compute the fix.

This happens because it has NO cache about the satellites in view on your part of the world, so it has to look for them.
After the first fix has been done, the next one should be much faster (seconds or a bunch of minutes, depending of the quality of the signals).

It needs 3 satellites for a 2D fix and 4 satellites for a 3D fix.
I've heard that the GPS chip is a Sirf III, and that's a very good news as the fix time is greatly reduced with that chip (a part from the first one).

Let us know!

I got the fix with 4 sat in 59 seconds!
AWESOME

The Sirf III would be great news. I'm familiar with a Pharos Sirf III GPS. Land at the other side of the US, boot notebook, GPS lock in 10-30 secs. First use maybe a minute.
