More about the Nokia N800

Personally I like Nokia products and it doesn’t matter whether it is a cell phone or a tablet. Currently I own Nokia N800 and would like to say a bit about it.

In 2007 Nokia N800 was introduced as a replacement for Nokia 770 version, which was one of the first tablets ever. It had a large variety of new and improved features such as:


processor, which was faster than ever
doubled the amount of RAM
additional improvements such as a built-in camera for video calls
built-in stereo speakers
2 x SD-sized memory card slots
a built-in stand, which I use every day


Nokia N800 started to win buyers attention – it was nice looking with its attractive curvy steel-and-plastic casing. And to round everything up, it was added to N-series and if you are a Nokia fan, you know what difference it makes.




But let’s talk more about improvements of N800 compared to Nokia 770. It had a totally new operating system (Internet Tablet OS 2007), which replaced the 770's OS 2006. But all these improvements didn’t make this tablet perfect. In late 2007, Nokia introduced a new N810. This new tablet was the replacement for the N800.

The new version offered improvements of the operating system, new OS 2008 was released, and a built-in keyboard and GPS receiver, which sounded like an insane thing back then.

The N800 even has some of its own hardware advantages to counter the N810's keyboard and GPS. Nokia N800 has two fully functional memory card slots and the N800 has a built-in FM radio receiver.

All in all, the N800 was one of the first good tablets, which I got to use and I pride myself upon it.

How to connect a USB flash drive to your tablet using the USB cable

Image
Okay, let's start from basic notions - why would someone want to connect a thumb drive to a Nokia tablet? USB flash drives, which are sometimes referred to as thumb drives are basically flash memory cards with a USB connector. They could be easily carried around and can store up to 64GB of information. Most of my friends use these to make backups of important files or to carry needed files with them. The N800 and N810 both come with built-in memory card slots, but both these data storage devices work identically but flash drives are capable of storing larger amounts of information. The only difference is in the the plug, the USB plug in this case. Well, when I started writing this blog posts, I didn't know that a similar article already existed, so please refer to this article to find out how to connect a USB drive to a tablet by using a USB cable: http://trixboxer.com/blog/nokia-n800-n810-how-to-connect-a-usb-flash-drive-to-your-tablet-using-the-usb-cable/ Thanks...

Nokia N800 & N810: How to turn your internet tablet into a "PADD" from Star Trek

If you're a fan of the TV and film series Star Trek, you may be familiar with the "PADD" portable computer tablet that many of the characters used. Well, if you install an unofficial theme pack called "LCARS", you can turn your internet tablet into something that still works just like an internet tablet, but which looks and sounds like a PADD from Star Trek. How to install LCARS on your N800 or N810 The installation process is very simple: 1. Click on the Globe in the top left hand corner, open a new browser window, and go to this address: maemo.org/downloads/OS2008 This is the official website for installing Maemo applications, and Maemo is the software platform used by Nokia's internet tablets. Incidentally, maemo.org is sometimes a very slow site even when you access it on a desktop computer. If it's too slow when you visit, try going back later. 2. On the Categories section on the right of the screen, click on "Desktop Environment...

Nokia N800 & N810: How to connect to a computer using the USB cable

The Nokia N800 and N810 internet tablets can be attached to a Windows, Linux or Macintosh computer using a USB cable. In normal mode this lets you transfer files to and from the tablet's memory card (or memory cards if you have more than one). You can also use the same cable to update the tablet's firmware when it is in update mode. Unlike Nokia's phones, the tablets do not have a PC Suite mode. They will not work with Nokia PC Suite at all. How to transfer files onto and off the tablet's memory card or cards using the USB cable The main thing to bear in mind about this process is that the computer never actually accesses the tablet itself. All it does is access the tablet's memory card or cards. Another thing to bear in mind is that you can transfer absolutely any kind of file on and off the card or cards: music, video, text, anything at all. Not all file types will work on the tablet, but all file types can be placed on the tablet's memory card or car...
