You mention wishing that there was an escape key on the n810.

There is. The “undo” button on the face of the device, that looks like an arrow curved back in a circle… that undo/go-back functionality is implemented via… Escape It works just fine while using vi. It’s just a little out of the way.

You missed three of my favorite apps

evince for reading pdfs - kills any other phone type device
fbreader - for reading offline html files and ebooks
mplayer - for watching offline tv shows

if price is an issue - look at the n800 - you should be able to pick one up for $200 and change. It supports the new operating system as well as 2 SD cards - I use 16 GB and 4 GB cards - but you could use the 32 GB ones. Note over 4 GB they are a bit slower.

Cheers and thanks

[...] Nokia n810 Internet Tablet Review- A while back I tested the Nokia 770 Internet Tablet. I wasn’t impressed. It was slow and clunky. Since then, Nokia announced the n800 followed by the n810 and the n810 WiMax Edition. Based on my experiences with the 770 Internet Tablet, … [...]

On my russian Nokia N810 blog i’ve posted information that online retailer Buy.com is offering a discount on the N810 WiMAX, and if you are a new user of google checkout, you can recieve additional bonus.

So, if you want to buy that device, it is best time to realise your thoughts

I’m very happy with the device as a web browser. Its great to have something very light for when out and about. I just wish the email would work for imap. There are other sources that can be down loaded but for linux beginners like myself, things can be a pain.

I’ve had the device for about two weeks and I’m already getting installation errors and crashing. There are sites dedicated for IT faqs but everyone seems to be far ahead that newbies are at lost when posting inquiries.

For me, this will take a while to get into.

I haven’t tried this but is it possible to move the program to your memory card using the command line?

mv /path/to/program/directory /media/mmc2/new/path

1. Is if possible to install apps to external memory? Anyone know? I love the tablet, but it’s silly to not be able to insert an 8GB micro and take advantage of storing apps there … so far I have not found an easy way to do this via UI or hacks … perhaps Nokia would push a firmware update to change this? Nokia, think S60 like where you can choose where to install apps upon installation!

2. Also, with the included worldmap … the cities are not complete … it does not even have Boston of San Francisco to choose from! Please update the list to reflect all major cities globally.
