Just bought a Nokia 770 Tablet. Great deal on now at http://www.woot.com check it out!Now when I go somewhere...I can take BBW with me
You use a little stick and the screen as a touch pad. You can even write and it will turn your writing into printed letters. I've never used it before so not sure how good it will work but we'll see. That deal is only available till midnight though. But with that price..and with the realease of the 800..prices may be around there from now on(maybe).I almost bought it when it came out for like $400. Granted that was a long time ago. So figured at this price couldnt go wrong.

It's not a phone though, so don't expect it to store your stuff and make for an easy text message sender. I am gettin it to view 3-4 sites of mine including BBW..and mostly for Email. Just don't forget you have to be in a Wi-Fi area to use it. Most of my friends, and most restaurants and other places you go now are all starting to have Wi-Fi so not a problem. Makes it so you don't have to pay any monthly bill or anything at least.It's definitely better then logging my laptops around everywhere I go..then taking 10 minutes to boot it just to see I don't have any mail.Plus I'll look cool

Yeah, but obviously not intended for heavy use. I wouldn't sit on this thing for hours though or anything, because it doesn't have much memory. Just something portable you can take with you to view the net and check your mail with WiFi. Seems to be pretty expandable though from what I was reading..after I get it I'll look up all the things I can do with it and whatnot.
wait my friend bought his for 3000 dollars .... urs was only 400? wth ...his has navigation screen with it and stuff to maybe thats why

Well hopefully they don't suck and you guys blame me .Shouldn't have a prob getting what ya paid or more back on ebay for it though if indeed it does suck. I'll prob keep it either way though cause im lazy like that and hate Ebay.

Im at my campus all day, and I always have to carry my laptop around...this is a great substitute...plus its linux...it's customizable in every aspect.
Yeah def. I heard if you install gizmo http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gizmo_Project and http://www.gizmoproject.com/download.php you can use it as a free internet phone service if you're in wifi of course.Also heard you can install something to make it a GPS too. Ton of other things am reading tonly problem is it's not that big so surely won't be able to support ALL of these things...but maybe it will. If you buy it you def need to go to ebay and spend the $20 on a 1Gb RS-MMC.
