Msnbc.com renders painfully slow but once the page you want to view is loaded, it runs good. A lot of text and images bogs it down on the main page. Individual articles are quicker. That flash/java/whatever header and footer they use seems really sluggish and hard to use to me.
Live.com content works really nicely I actualy use this a lot. It's one of my fav sites to use on the Nokia N810. Skydrive is really nice.
Not sure what netvibes is, I went to netvibes.com. It loaded slow but was useable afterwards. Only a slight slugishness navigating and moving the page arround; theres a lot of widgets.
Espn redirected me to espn.go.com. It started to load and then all of a suddon there was like 2 or 3 popups or pupunders? My first popup on the Nokia eek. Page was slow navigating and slow load time; lots of big pictures.
Newsgator site loaded quickly and was smooth to navigate, the flash was a bit choppy on the main page there. I don't have an account to the online rss reader. Theres a built in rss thing on the n810 btw...
Zoho writer works...not very impressed tho. I went to click new and I guess I hit import and the pop up came ever so slowly I thought it was going to lock up at first. It's difficult for me to use because of small buttons, and some of these buttons I'm not sure what they do and theres no "hover" so you can't get a tooltip on them. I tried to add a template but when I clicked the button it just didn't do anything, I'm not sure I'm doing it right. The main interface doesn't fit on the screen at 100%, if you work on multiple documents and need to use the pane on the left and see all of the document on the right then you will have to scroll horizontally a lot.
Myspace main page loaded slowish. Theres some sorta embed video about election2008 at the top of the page, it runs well. But as soon as you scroll arround the audio chops out and the page is hard to scroll; it becomes sluggish. Then I clicked on that and went to the myspace/election2008 and theres a bigger video of the same one , and that video is very choppy and sluggish on it's own but audio is ok. also for having a lot of images and whatnot on that myspace page it was still ok to navigate. Not so sluggish after the movie was stoped.
Gmail, slow to load, works great afterwards.
Newegg. Pages render quickly. Checkout is clean and free of any graphical anomolies and errors. Have to horizontally scroll a lot to make use of the checkout. Was unable to tell if I was "secure". I'm used to IE with the lil lock icon. When I searched for Nokia N810 there was no results found !
Amazon. Renders slow; not as smooth as newegg. I'm not sure what happened, I looked up to type this out and went back to the Nokia and Amazon page was frozen, I had to restart the browser. Pages hard to navigate with touch and drag, really could only use the scrollbars. Not enough whitespace and for some reason when theres a popup image for a product, it makes touch screen scrolling non-responsive. Some products have miniature video reviews, like other pages audio is good but video is a slideshow. Theres a couple really large videos...I didn't try but i'd imagein if the small ones bring the Nokia to its knees the big ones would probbaly lock it up.
akihabaranews. Renders quick, navigation is smooth on main page. Articles with big images make it sluggish but manageable, not much to read usualy anyways. For the videos...audio is good, video is choppy like others.
Hope this helps !
All of these pages were tested with Nokia N810, OS 2008 version 1.2007.42-19, fullscreen, battery power.
