Nokia N810 -- announced!

So we fooled you! I bet you expected a new Internet Tablet in January but we worked overtime and will get it ready earlier! It has been fun to watch how things have leaked out and everybody knew about it already before the launch ;-) It's been fun to make it, too.

So what is Nokia N810? From the hardware point of view, the basic engine is the same as in N800. But we added GPS and a nice sliding keyboard. The on-screen kb works, too, of course. And it is a bit smaller than N800.

From the maemo based software point of view, a lot of new stuff. On the top of my list:

• UI improvements. Looks and feels better. Eye candy, functional improvements
• new browser
  
• faster updated Flash 9
• more multimedia formats supported
• improved finger usage
• nice set of 3rd party apps and services

So full multimedia on the move

• the best browser on any portable device!
• instant messaging
• VoIP
• music and videos
• GPS with maps and downloadable voice guided navigation
• WiFi + Cellular (through bt enabled phones)

And, you can update your N800 to run the new maemo based OS2008, too!
