Sari Lönnqvist of Nokia’s N800 team walked me through the N800’s new features while giving me plenty of opportunity to try it out myself. Overall, the unit feels like a big improvement over the 770. When I reviewed the older unit, I found it to be slow and underpowered. In contrast, the N800 feels much more responsive. The faster CPU, doubled RAM, and new OS (Internet Tablet 2007 OS) appear to have made a big difference, especially when it comes to multitasking.
When I originally reviewed the 770 in December 2005, I lamented
its sluggishness and unrealized potential. Based on the hour I spent
with the N800 today, my first impressions are that Nokia has addressed
many of the 770’s shortcomings. Once I get back from CES, I’m going to
dig into the N800 with a full review.Source: Ars Technica
