Bottomline: Nokia’s making steps to evolve the N-Series tablets from “strictly for geeks” to “consumer friendly gadgets.” The N810 - and newly launched N810 WiMax Edition - represent another step in that evolution, but this is still an...
Abstract: In the first half of 2007, Nokia released the N800 Internet Tablet, a distinct hardware step up from the original Nokia Internet Tablet, the Nokia 770. It sported a new OS, though original tablet owners could upgrade if they wished. At the end of 2007...
Abstract: With the announcement of the N770, Nokia created the new “Internet Tablet” class – small tablet-like devices, intended mainly for Internet usage. This idea evolved, and now we are reviewing the third model of this family, the N810. It up...

Good: Excellent Web browsing; improved user interface; includes built-in QWERTY keyboard, GPS receiver; Linux-based Maemo OS 2008 offers a wide variety of downloadable applications and customization options; lots of media file support
Bad: Does not support SD cards; fixed-lens Webcam is not ideal for taking pictures; stripped-down e-mail client; GPS software requires $129 license; jerky video playback for some file types; no solid, do-it-all media software; lacks productivity tools
Bottomline: Thanks to its customizable Linux-based OS and robust Web browser, the Nokia N810 offers one of the best mobile Internet experiences you can buy—if you can live without built-in WWAN—but business users will be miffed by its lack of productivity...
Good: Great calling, surprisingly, with Skype. Best internet browser for any device this size. Lots of internal memory and an external slot. Fantastic screen, especially for videos.
Bad: Buggy. Doesnt come with much pre-loaded software. Slide-out keyboard isnt better than previous, onscreen option. Did we mention buggy? GPS doesnt live up to expectations.
Bottomline: The Nokia N810 gets a lot right, its true. You wont find a better Web browser on a device this small, but it still isnt a perfect experience, thanks to lagging performance. Calling with Skype is great, but youll still need a cell phone for tethe...
