Geneven,

Thanks for the heads up on gutenbrowse.

I like my n800 with all the cool stuff I've added for free.
Hopefully they will come out with a phone version.

I want a Xperia X1

Do you find Gutenbrowse runs acceptably with OS2008? Or are you on an earlier OS?

Also, what's going on when I get a page that looks like this, like I got on the maemo gutenbrowse page?

I'm waiting for a simple thing that must be out there. It must. How can it not?

A good gateway router with very very good wireless range and very very good QoS capabilities that doesn't require a lot of techie knowledge to set up.

Damned if I can find one from reviews.

In the meantime, I guess I'll have to get a Linksys WRT54GL, download some VOiP-specific firmware, futz around with it (being brave but not knowledgeable) and see if it plays nice with my current m'eh modem - a Siemans 567 (though a Thompson Smarttouch is on it's way to me).

I know. It's not in the interest of a lot of ISPs to have customers with outside VOiP companies (especially if they're also selling the service)... .

Oh, btw, the Siemans? My N800 is less than 12 feet away from the modem with no walls bewteen the two and I can't get a strong signal - not even enough to get web pages loaded under 30 seconds. It's pathetic. Even *after* I went through the hassle of changing channels. Blaaaaa'.

Does that count as a tech toy?

I really want an Asus EEE 900 with the Atom processor in it, then I will upgrade it to 2GB PC2-6400 ram and an Intel 5350 wifi/wimax card. Also I want an Nokia tablet that uses Centrino Atom. I am really tired of how often my N800 freezes and stutters.

I'm liking the UMPC platform and trying to justify why I need an Asus Eeepc with touchscreen (is there one out there??). I love my N800 and want to 'push' it to its limit, still finding out all the things it can do....

I've recently been looking at the Chumby. Some of it's uses overlap the internet tablets, but I like the idea of a widget based device that I can use late at night to check weather, news, etc right before I go to bed. Plus, you gotta admit, it looks kinda cute. :D

I wouldn't mind an eee with a good keyboard!

Re: OK, so what is your next gotta have tech toy?
 

How about the new Celio REDFLY appliance as a paired partnet to the N8x0?

They are marketing it for Windows Mobile smartphones, but it might be ideal for the IT!!

Could we convince them to port the interface applets to Linux ?

I especially like its "instant on" feature (all solid state).

I'd like any mobile device with a better browser; I need a browser that can filter out Intel astroturfing.
