[Novalug] Any Nokia N800 Internet Tablet Users?

[Kevin Kitts]

I don't think I can offer any Skype advice... but I picked up a Nokia 770
recently for $129.00. I've heard that the 800 (which is the newer model) is
much better - but I'm really impressed with the device after using it for a
few weeks. The reviews say that internet access is slow - but I find that
the it locates WIFI signals better than my laptop and I thought the
performance was pretty good. Sometimes I use it for accessing a couple of
web servers inside my house (not available to the outside world) - and for
this performance is great.

I'll be interested to hear if you get skype or some other VOIP program
working...
