Toshiba was able to cram multiple forms of cellular into their toughbook
series...all mini-pci I think.
There was a new ultra-rugged military-grade umpc recently announced
(hi-vol sales only...$5K!!!) that had multiple forms of radios.
What happened to those software-programmable radios man?

No argument here - It seems like the exclusion was conscious, but I
can't figure out why.
I do not intend this as a flame, but you chose the wrong device.
You want a laptop/tablet PC and you'll have to pay for it in both size and
cost. Just putting together a package like the N800.770 is is a feat. Look at
UMPCs and see what you can find, but I'd challenge you to find one that will

It would also be nice if we could get (think it's called) OBEX support
built in so you could bluetooth beam files back and forth between
phones and computers. The file manager does a nice job letting you
browse a bluetooth

More cpu, more power consumption. Buy desktop.
Actually no...buy a Pepper Pad

Not that we can tell. Hey Nokia, we want to help! Really!
The reason for the delay is, I believe, the work required to get

Knock with all-in-one devices (like stereos) is you often get crap you

I agree, though - there /are/ two models. I think that Nokia's

much more numerous) smart phone offerings. The N800, however, is a
deliberate step to the other end of the spectrum - single device,

Michael,
in the U.S. all three of Cingular (HSDPA), Verizon (EVDO), and Sprint
(EVDO) have deployed broadband mobile wireless services with a national
footprint that, if Sprint's vision is correct will become, in Sprint's
case, a stepping stone to full WIMAX deployment a few years down the

I really think this is the way to go. I would love to find something
even simpler; a barebones little box that acts like a GSM modem with a
BT interface ... I don't even care

I have been holding off on 3G data plan due to horrific costs and
questions about availability/robustness.
Cingular's plan is like $80/mo for all you can eat. Given there are
comments regarding voice calls dropping when data is incoming and vice
versa...I'll be a late adopter thanks.
In S.F.

Nokia probably took a look at the data plans

Does anyone here have any info (e.g. perhaps a compatibility list from

with the N800?

The SINGLE worst problem with the 770/800 is NO BT headsets. It's a
long standing complaint. I've come to believe it's a conscious decision.
With BT headsets, these would be THE internet devices.
