Install RTComm and you will have native SIP using the built in, look on this forum for a thread about it.

Like everything Nokia n810 has good and bad thinks but for me it's the best internet tablet in world. Open source it could not be better!

HI all....just got the 810 and love it to bits.
However I read that the browser was supposed to be really quick......my wife has an Itouch and that knocks spots off the n810 in terms of speed.....could I have a problem with the 810?
BIt new this so apologies in advance for my ignorance.

Hate to self-link, but I wrote a really big list of thoughts here:
http://dylanmccall.blogspot.com/2008...810-today.html

The hardware is great. One issue I have is that the keyboard seems to make a slight scratching noise when I slide it out, though that is going away. I also swear there is some point of contact behind the screen; every now and then when pulling out the keyboard, I see that swirly effect of something touching it near the center. Could be my imagination.

The screen itself is shockingly amazing. I have never seen a screen with this high a resolution; rounded edges look round, and we don't need any fancy anti-aliasing effects to do it.

I, for one, do not wish for a flush screen when using this. The slight border around the screen is, for me, 100% justified. Just enough space to put my fingers without touching the screen itself. Any less and it would be a pain to hold.

Wow, touch pressure actually works! Maemopad+ really shows that off nicely. (Although it could do with smoothing or some such; I find my writing looks appalling with it). Do we have proper pressure sensitive hardware here?

The stand is nice, but an issue I have with it is that the device can slide around when it is extended. Some rubber feet would have been a nice touch...

On the software end of things, there is room for improvement. The N810 would do beautifully being used in portrait mode, which is unfortunately not yet supported in official software, and the system still feels a tad sluggish overall. However, something really cool is happening here: The N810 is one of few handheld gadgets to happily split the software from the hardware. This is mine to mess with, and it is very possible to do so.
