Questions about the Nokia n800 Internet Tablet

Now that we have a ton of information about the device and some of us have had the opportunity to use one this weekend, the Internet Tablet irc community has moved on to a new set of questions:

  • 1. What portions of Internet Tablet OS 2007 (the os running on the n800) will make it back to the old 770? What does the future hold for the 770? Will herring/sardine (the next version of the Internet Tablet OS) appear on both the 770 and the n800?
  • 2. What is the CPU model on the 800? ANSWER: Jarek points to the newly updated wiki for this info. “The processor is a 330-MHz, ARM11-based Texas Instruments (TI) OMAP 2420.”
  • 3. Can the USB port power peripherals?
  • 4. Are the SD ports SDIO compatible?
  • 5. Are the SD ports HDSD compatible?

Do you have other questions for the folks at Nokia?

UPDATE: Some great answers in the comments section.

Also, Dave, in the comments, points us to updated tech specs on Nokia’s site.

Updates on the Nokia N800

The Nokia N800 Internet Tablet supports 4GB SD Cards?!?!?!

Found this gem on the InternetTabletTalk Forums:

“And as I mentioned before, the N800 is recognizing a 4 GB SD card. I might possibly pick up an 8 GB just out of curiosity to see if it works.”

Opera changes on the Nokia n800. Compared to the Nokia 770.

The Nokia n800:

Opera Version “8.5 Internal” Build “2.0.31”

The flash version tester says 7.0.0.

The Nokia 770:

Opera Version “8.02 Internal” Build “1.1.50”

The flash version tester says 6.0.82.

The opera.ini file is largely the same between the two versions, however the n800’s cache settings are much higher.

Nokia N800 Video – The first of many

This video addresses some questions brought up via email and irc. In this video, you’ll see every angle of the N800 Internet Tablet. You’ll also watch it boot, try to play a YouTube video and visit the control panel. At the bottom of this post I linked to the original 50MB WMV, also.
