Re: Vulcan Nerve Pinch?

For us native Vulcans, no sweat :-).

Actually, solved the problem by never turning it off. Lives on the charger for the most part.

I guess the mind meld causes it to reboot to refresh itself...

Re: Under $99 stand alone GPS shipped, no rebate

It is another option, sure.

I gave up on the NIT (ANT? :-) for that kind of thing using a BT GPS because the apps are just not up to standards and battery life left much to be desired.

Re: don't you think the screen of N800 is a little small

For the stated purpose, yes it is. Leaves much to be desired but for other things it works out well enough.

I guess nokia thought that half a screen was better than something bigger (overall). ...

Re: gizmo5

I applied for a grandcentral account probably six months ago or so now and never heard a word.

gizmo works just fine and prices are (IMO) fairly reasonable.

Re: N810 as hiking/outdoors GPS?

I'd go with a conventional GPS and have :). Just easier all around and batteries last a lot longer, you can do routing on the device and a lot more that the current offerings for the NITs don't yet....

Re: Screen does not stay lit when charging

Err, I don't have powerlaunch installed and mine doesn't stay lit when charging either.

IIRC, it did with the 20067 OS?!?

Re: Thoughts on 770 to N800 Upgrade

I'll agree that the 770s physical factor was light year + orders of magnitude better than either the 800 or 810.

I came very close to getting the 770 over the 800 but the weird SD card ended up...

Re: nokia tablet, do you use a bluetooth keyboard?

Igo stowaway too (BT). Set it up and it now resides in my briefcase, unused (should probably pull the batteries). Nothing of interest to me on the n800 that needs it.
