Today while reading my sunday newspaper magazine, I found this little gadget called the Nokia N800. Which basically is a iPhone from Nokia.

What do you think?

Nokia N800

no multitouch, no os x, looks like a crappy interface...

and it seems big...

no thanks...

N800 is not a phone.. it cant make phone call like a normal cellphone.

N800 is not a phone, and it is second Tablet model from Nokia, first model Nokia 770 was released few years ago and N800 is just upgraded version with VGA-Camera, faster CPU and double memory etc.

You do know that Apple ripped of the LG phone, right?

Ofcourse I do.

Nokia made an update 770??? Oh my gosh! I really wanted to get one a couple months ago but backed out. I'll check out the specs!

I like how they say "high resolution widescreen display" but don't give a resolution.
Other than the interface (which looks complicated) it's a pretty cool device... depending on just how well it can surf the net, of course!

Good find; I wasn't aware, as I am sure most people aren't with all the Apple iPhone buzz clouding the media.
The iPhone interface is miles better in comparison to the LG one though.

Nah, it is not a rip-of. It is just due to the used technique that they look similar.

The main differences between the iPhone and the Hongkong Pradalette are the
OS and the touchscreen. And if you look closely, you may notice that both phones
are 90% touchsceen. Also both phones are finger TS not stylus TS. So I don't think
they even had a chance to look more different than that

Well considering the 770 has been around far longer than apples iphone hmm makes ya think... Not to mention it runs on linux and pwns

No, the N series tablets are Linux based and pre-date the iPhone by a few years. I love my little N800 but it's not a telephone (it'll do skype though). My boss has the iPhone and it's also a nice device, but in a very different way. He can't run Kismet /Kismac on his iPhone as I can on the N800, but I'm sure somewhere geeks more talented in coding than I are working on that . . .

Doesnt remind me of the iphone in the slightest bit. Looks more like the new Windows PDA OS.

it's 800x480. more pixels than an iphone, and good enough for non-HD video, but this isn't really trying to compete with cellphones. the iphone display also has a higher DPI (160 vs ~130 or so for the N800), making everything look a little crisper on screen in spite of the lower pixel count.

i'm also pretty sure the N800 came out before the iphone. in any case, they're completely different products; nobody would buy a N800 if they need to make calls or be out of wifi range for any amount of time, and most people wouldn't buy an iphone if they just want something to surf the web on. it's not a ripoff of the iphone in any way.

Rubbish. It's not a phone and it has a terrible interface that is very "early-90's MP3 player"-looking.

Does it sync with iCal? thought so.

I told you this would happen. Apple does something and than anything remotely similar (These aren't even the same type of device as people have pointed out, but what the hell, according to Bayliss it's a 'rip off'), even which has a successor that pre-dates the iPhone by years, will be a 'rip off.'

It has a better interface than IPhone. It has stylus that you can used to surf the web better than your finger. Plus it has a better resolution screen. Who cares about iCal, as I never used it on my OSX86 anyway.

The Nokia N770, N800 are better engineered devices, with a better interface, and at a better price, than the IPhone.

can you compare these two next? i really want to know which is better

Yes, it will synch with ical and a number of other formats.
