Nokia today introduced the Nokia N810 Internet Tablet, signifying a new phase in portable internet communication. Sporting Bluetooth 2.0 and Wi-Fi 802.11b/g connectivity, a slide-out QWERTY keyboard and a full-fledged web browser, there's only one thing missing: WiMAX. However, a WiMAX version of the N810 will be coming next year. In the meantime, the N810's Wi-Fi connectivity will provide Internet access through hotspots as well as home and office networks, while the Bluetooth 2.0 support provides Internet access through cellular data networks when connected to phones with Dial-up networking (DUN) support.
The Nokia N810 comes with a range of must-have features such as Skype for calling, web camera with VGA resolution, e-mail and Instant messaging clients, GPS radio with Wayfinder's voice guided navigation for turn-by-turn directions and a microSD slot supporting cards up to 8GB.
In addition, the N810 comes with a 400MHz TI OMAP 2420 processor, 2GB of internal storage capacity, 128MB DDR RAM and 256MB Flash ROM. Furthermore, the N810 weighs 226 g and measures 72 by 128 by 14 mm.
The Nokia N810 is powered by Maemo Linux based OS2008, featuring a highly customizable user interface and contains various novelties such as a Mozilla based browser with Ajax and Adobe Flash 9, Bluetooth headset support as well as enhanced video and audio features. The Mozilla browser provides access to all web sites a standard web browser would provide access to, including sites like Facebook and Youtube.
A built-in media player supports 3GP, AVI, WMV, MP4, H263, H.264, MPEG-1, MPEG-4 and RV (RealVideo) video formats, as well as MP3, WMA, AAC, AMR, AWB, M4A, MP2, RA (RealAudio) and WAV audio formats. The media player provides direct access to shared media over Universal Plug and Play (UPnP). Nokia claims a music playback time of 10 hours; continuous usage (display on, wireless LAN active) of up to 4 hours; always online time of up to 5 days; and standby time of up to 14 days.
The refreshed Video Gizmo, Skype and Rhapsody highlight some most popular downloads available while Boingo Wireless, Earthlink and The Cloud enable Wi-Fi connectivity across thousands of different locations globally.
Sporting a 65K colors 4.1" display with a resolution of 800 by 480 pixels, the Nokia N810 Internet Tablet is expected to start shipping mid November with an estimated retail price of $480.

After all the buzz I've could not understand what the point in comparing iPhone with N810..
Isn't it like comparing a yamaha motorcycle with Yamaha boat engine???
But yes, sure bloggers, what else can you compare it to if you want to get some traffic?
Sorry Michael I did not get your point at all...
iPhone is not a cellular phone it's "much more". So nobody compared iPhone with another models of cellular phones. But N810 it's exactly that "much much more than just a cool cellular phone" so those two models will fight for the most addicted by mobile communication people.
what's the problem with Bloggers I did not get. The same article in a PRINTED paper that does not generate any traffic, would be good for you? ;)
anyway the discussion is not about traffic but about that Nokia become the absolutely leader in everywhere mobile... I am not sure yet if it's good or bad for all of us, but I like it since Apple was never my brand.

Indeed they will, if the bloggers try to compare them. And yes, iPhone is a smartphone, Nokia N700/N800/N810 are not.
what's the problem with Bloggers I did not get
no problem at all, I just was saying that typing "iPhone" in a blog these days generates traffic

ah, OK. now it looks much better, I agree with you ;)
P.S. about my Blog you know- I do not care about the "traffic" :) we're not Bloggers here, we're the Business Club! but everyone of us has some own passion... for me seeng as Apple becomes religion was a pain. And the fact that iPhone is arriving and "everyone" wants it- was another pain!
now I am happy, Nokia is my brand- also because of Symbian but for lots of another "right" things.

do not care about the "traffic" :) we're not Bloggers here, we're the Business Club!
why did you decide I was speaking about you???
you are not the author of this analogy!

... you know that I always expect from you something mordant ;) J/K!
I just thought you did not like that I've republished the thing that the others have already pubblished earlier...
but I did do it for "traffic generation", never! It's because I am really happy that Nokia becomes always stronger and stronger! you understand- Google is now also entering Mobile Communication and so on- so I think it's better to deal with Nokia that's TRUE MOBILE, than with Apple or Google on-the-air ;)
