Nokia 770 Internet Tablet PC Review from Robert Nagle idiotprogrammer. upcoming 2006 upgrade is coming…and it looks super! , If you’re on the fence about buying the Nokia, here’s a few things to come in mind.

First, the current OS is still a work-in-progress, but it’s already developed a huge amount of geek interest and support. In midJune they just released the beta of the 2006 OS, and the actual release is expected in the next month or so.

Now here’s the good news. People on the Nokia 770 bulletin boards have been absolutely raving about improvements they’ve noticed in the 2006 Beta. Adds VOIP support, Google talk, alarms for the Personal Information Manager, better interface, better package manager. (On the flip side, many of the apps for the 2005 version need to be respun–apparently no big deal though). Oddly, they had a fully functional microphone which they never enabled until the 2006 version of the OS.

On the software side, they’ve added a better contact app (which is still not great). The GPE open source application has undergone substantial improvements, and now that 2006 has alarms, that solves a major gripe people have had. FBReader is now the premier ebook reading program capable of reading PDB, HTML, RTF, TXT and FB2 files.

So before you buy, you might want to look up the improvements due to happen on the 770 real soon. And be pleasantly surprised. Now’s a great time to buy the nokia, because the device is just about to hit its stride.
