 One of the best gadgets I ever owned !!!!! June 26, 2008
Finally.. Almost a month after I get my hands on the N800.. A chance to review it !
I loved it the minute I had it in my hands ! The N800 is an impressive piece of equipment that is well built. The screen, at 65k colors, is awesome. I dont think it needs anything else.
The N800 comes with OS2007, and I upgraded it to OS2008 within a couple of days. There are many tutorials around on how to do it, and it is easy!
My first bad experience was when I charged it for a little while and started using it for the first time, I tried turning it off and back on again. It wouldn't turn back on. The trick is to disconnect the charger, remove the battery, wait a while, insert the battery, wait a while, and then connect the charger and see if it responds. Then turn it on. Took me 3 hours to figure it out ! Luckily, the problem disappears after upgrading to OS2008.
The N800 accepts SDHC cards, and I've been able to put two 8GB class 6 cards on it.
Once the cards were in place, I installed the OS2008 on one of the cards so that I could install more apps. I thought I could install the apps on the SD card if I booted off from the card, but I was disappointed. The apps still install in the inbuilt memory. I dont know if this has a workaround. But they sure get a little more space because the OS is now on one of the cards.
It's not a monster at running apps, but as long as it is some 2-3 apps you run at once, it handles them well without a problem. Anything beyond that, it's a bit sluggish.
Connecting to home Wi-Fi was easy enough, and it picks up the signals from quite some distance. I haven't tried connecting through a cell phone though.
The camera, is a very low-res camera, and serves almost no purpose. Video calls can only be made to another N800. No inbuilt support to use the camera to click a few pictures! There's an app that uses the camera to take pictures, but you're better off using the camera on your phone to click a few.
RSS feed reader isn't good at all; And so is the e-mail program. Get claws for e-mail client, and get the RSS plugin for claws for your RSS feed reading. They do the job well.
The in-built media player is a bit slow at playing music, and is not the best, but I use it anyway because I couldn't find anything better. So, if you have an iPod, you're better off with it. Get MPlayer to play video files though. Nothing beats it. I use it as my music player in my car, connecting it to the AUX in my car.
Video playback is smooth, and it can play DivX videos without much problem. The inbuilt speakers are also good, and the quality of audio on the earphones/headphones is good too.
Input is through a keyboard, or through handwriting. The keyboard/handwriting section is the lower 1/3rd of the screen. The keyboard input is through stylus, and a qwerty-style layout. It could sometimes be annoying to type because it is small. There's a full-screen keyboard for typing with your thumbs, but that needs a little more patience, and a little more pressure to type that you'd think. It's not fast. I personally found the handwriting recognition to be much easier than I was expecting it to be, after reading many reviews/articles about how hard/unacceptable it is. I do a mix-and-match of input depending on the mood I'm in. None of them fits the bill for a full-fledged IMer though. And yes, there's a cut-copy-paste feature !
The browser's pretty fast and good, but is a bit slow with content-rich sites. I've had no issues with the browser as well.
Inbuilt messenger supports only GTalk (and another protocol I dont use and hence dont remember) and handles the voice calls very well.
Battery life, is good, supposedly lasting for 5 hours of use, and 8 days of standby; I get to around 3-4 days of medium use. I run my email client 24x7, and the browser for about an hour a day. I ocassionally do a voice chat. The longest voice call I did was for some 2 hours, where the battery levels dropped only by 25%. I'll label that 'impressive'.
For those who want to get a GPS functionality running on this.. Get one of the BT GPS reciever, and get your maps from google maps, or other open free maps. There is an inbuilt maps software called 'Maps', but it doesn't provide you a routing functionality unless you purchase a license, which is very costly.
I'm still trying to get more useful apps on it to make the most out of it. Up in the line is VNC, and an SSH client. Also, you probably want to get a screen protector for it so that you dont end up scratching the screen too much.
After one month of using it, I just dont let it go anywhere out of my sight. It has to be with me ! This is probably the best thing I ever owned in my life ! I just love it.

n800 is a cool gizmo June 7, 2008
handy little hand held...only limitation is have to have access to wireless...works great for internel calling with the built in camera
Great device, but not a laptop substitute. June 2, 2008
I travel a lot and own a small business, so I need to have a computer to access emails and manage internet activity. For my short 2-3 day trips, this pocket computer works great. It is much better than a PDA phone, since you get full web pages displayed, and much more portable than my laptop. The music player is nice and on line video conf. is very cool. I use it a lot to show pictures stored on the handy external SD, but the pictures need to be resized, or they are very slow to load. Web surfing can be slow at times, mostly due to the Java and flash files loading up, and this unit requires a good set of eyes or glasses. A bluetooth mouse would make this a star, but I don't think anyone has done this, yet. Overall, for the money, this is a great travel companion. If the airlines ever bring Wi-Fi to planes, this would be great.
