Re: Viewing websites is painful

The next version of the Internet Tablet will help with internet browsing troubles, with both a large bump in processing power and Adobe increasing optimization for that processor type. However, it's...

Re: A simple question about Dosbox

Shouldn't it be \media not \user\media, and only one number after the mmc?

Re: Need more insights!(purchase based post)

As long as you re-encode the videos, or use videos encoded for the PSP already, you'll be fine with movies. However, if you're not wanting to reencode videos, you may be disappointed by the N8x0's...

Re: Help! Cant find pc suite for 770:(

The 770 doesn't come with a CD as far as I know. This device is designed to act fairly independently from a PC, unlike a PDA.

As for updating the OS to the latest version, try this wiki:...

Re: N800 to 770 transplant? "It's ALIVE!!!!!"

If you're doing that much hacking, put it a Gumstix Overo Earth (http://gumstix.com/store/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=211) instead, and bump the specs to OMAP3 and 256MB of RAM. Though, a...

Re: RaidenX: Got this game downloaded, now how do I use it?

I've heard mplayer can run Flash apps faster, if they're compatible. Also, apparently running from rootfs off a fast SD card with swap will speed up Flash as well.

Re: WINE on ARM

The main trouble is finding developers, as yokozar pointed out in the article, there aren't many with ARM and Windows CE knowledge (as you'd likely need both).

Come to think of it, WINE for...

Re: My 770 is dead- white screen of death

Re: would you buy an x86 tablet?

If you mean equal to the current OMAP2 tablets, it'd be too slow to run a full-on desktop operating system, IMO. I could barely stand a 800MHz Transmeta based ultraportable, and it looks like OMAP2...

Re: 770 hovering over the trash can, can I bring it back?

"Not Charging" means you're supposed to send it in for repair. Why confuse users with actual data on what's wrong? Judging by what you've tried, pending the new battery is not a dud, the charging...

There was no reply, because there is no guide. I've not even heard of anyone actually having done it before, only speculation.

Re: 770 WSOD - White Screen of Death

I'd guess that the iPod Touch is capable of doing so, but I don't have one.

Yeah, a nice small 12" notebook is not that different in size from a netbook for practical purposes.

I doubt they can even repair it, as everyone lately has been getting a trade-up to N800 if they have a warranty.

There really isn't any other device currently on the market that's directly...

Not doable currently. Netlfix streaming movies work only under Internet Explorer on the x86 Windows platform, and are likely protected using DRM.
