Another intriguing thought about the Nokia 770--it claims support for playing mp3s and the like. So then you could run slimserver in a browser, xmms (or some such thing) pointing to the slimserver stream, headphones on your melon, and boom! you've got a pretty fancy portable player! well, at least until you get out of WiFi range...
Far enough to listen to your music while hoovering your appartment :-)
man, so many possibilities. now if i can just squirrel away the $$ to buy the thing...
I'll have the bucks by the day it sorts for those 350$ in _Switzerland_. I bet they'll ask almost the double over here :-(.
Poor Standards Support (CSS and Javascript particularly),
As radish stated correctly this is no longer an issue.
though, and with it's uber-flexibility I'd be a difficult sell on Opera.
Flexibility is great with the desktop versions. Can't say this for the copy I'm running on the Zaurus, though.
I would think Firefox could run as lean and mean or more so than Opera on the 770.
I'm not so sure. Opera is quite a standard with small devices: they have versions for many different mobile phones, techniques like "small screen rendering" which optionally optimises the layout for small screens etc. They have a lot of experience with small devices, that others simply don't have. But I think there's a project working on a smaller footprint, small devices optimised mozilla browser.
Well, 800x480 might outgrow the "small screen" category :-) -- Michael ----------------------------------------------------------- Help translate SlimServer by using the StringEditor Plugin (http://www.herger.net/slim/) _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
