Nokia Internet Tablet - 770 (part 2)
Currently on the internet lots of ideas about hardware improvements are written down, from expandability, ... all the way to the famous 'more memory' and 'more cpu power (speed)'. Expandability, there are indeed some good and clever ideas, but would this increase the price ?
As Ari Jaaksi is mentioning in his blog "But now, the hardware is what it is. We?ve got a gorgeous screen, a pretty good size (not too big ? not too small), the device is tough and solid, and the price is right. Yes it is. You?ll see new hardware coming from Nokia in the future, but let?s now use the hardware we?ve got. We try hard to get enough units built, and get them to you. For more memory and speed, we?ll work with the software to try to improve the performance. Also, let?s remember that a 770 is not your regular PC. So comparing a 770 to your latest laptop makes no sense what comes to memory and speed. But I agree that there is room for improvement there. Our goal is to make internet tablets good internet citizens. All major internet use cases should be easily performed. Therefore, all kind of input related to this goal are carefully studied. We need to put things in priority order and keep on working."
The weekend will begin, so time to test some applications with some 'fun' inside. As my mother seems to play everyday a 'Sudoku' game, I gave it a try on my Nokia 770, ... indeed, once you have started with it, it's difficult to stop.
