fter the success of its original Linux tablet, the 770, Nokia is looking at the next generation of Internet-only devices. The original tablet device debuted last year and caught the attention of gadget fans wondering why Nokia was making a device that had no cellular connectivity. According to the handset maker, there are no plans for the next generation of 770-style devices to be able to connect to mobile networks. Ari Virtanen, vice president of convergence products at Nokia, said going down the cellular-free route gave the company more freedom. "The biggest thing is that we don't want to be part of the cellular value chain," he said. "We want to be a little bit out of that world. Once you put a SIM card in, it's automatically controlled by the operator."

Yesterday I received my Nokia 770. First impression: the device has great potential, and is a nice hacker toy (woohoo, Linux!), but it is not ready to replace my PDA (Tungsten T). Palm makes everything it can do more convenient. Of course, my Palm doesn't have 802.11b/g, nor a good web browser...

SmallBASIC (SB) is a simple computer language, featuring a clean interface, strong mathematics and graphics. We feel it is an ideal tool for experimenting with simple algorithms, for having fun. Nokia 770 0.9.7.2 has been released, 20/7/2006 Updated for OS2006. Added DOFORM support. Nokia 770 0.9.7.1 has been released, 12/3/2006 A new version of SmallBASIC for the Nokia 770 Internet Tablet.

I recently purchased a Nokia 770 wireless Internet Tablet (http://europe.nokia.com/nokia/0,,75023,00.html) and a few days ago I successfully ported Ruby 1.8.4 to it. For those of you who are unfamiliar w/the 770, it's Nokia's first such non-phone product (or so they claim): a very nifty hand-held "PC" that among other things runs a pared down version of Linux (from kernel.org, debian package), has built in wifi and bluetooth, includes email client, Opera browser, RSS client, audio and video, all displayed on an 800x480x16bpp display. The 770 will sense any available wifi connection and jack in effortlessly. And, if you have a bluetooth-ready cell phone, the 770 can jack into that too and provide an internet connection via GPRS anywhere your cell has a signal (very cool indeed.) Before porting Ruby to it, it was love at first sight. Now I'm ecstatic.

Asterisk 1.2.1 on Nokia 770 (Please excuse the ugly appearance, I'm better at coding than design :).) This page details the procedure that I followed in order to obtain a working (as in "non-crashing") version of Asterisk 1.2.1 (the latest release from Digium) on the Nokia770. If you're in a hurry or you don't want to mess with compiling and Scratchbox (or you simply don't know what those are), just skip ahead to the binaries.

I was able to install the Scratchbox cross-compilation toolkit and the Maemo SDK without too much trouble, following the steps in the tutorial; when I went astray, reading the developer mailing list archives helped me get back on track quickly. I haven't done much development for the platform yet, but I can give you the flavor of the environment by showing you a do-nothing Hildon application in C++:

Nokia 770 tablet gains commercial VoIP softphone The Gizmo Project has ported its VoIP (voice-over-IP) softphone to Nokia's 770 Internet Tablet. Gizmo's free features include calls with other SIP-phone users, voicemail, and conference calls. Paid features include "call outs" to non-SIP-based phones, and a 10-digit U.S. phone number, to support incoming calls.

Collabora Ltd. develops Open Source Telepathy framework for VoIP and Instant Messaging on the Nokia 770 Internet tablet Cambridge, UK - Open source development experts Collabora Ltd. and world leader in mobile technology Nokia have joined forces to develop Telepathy, a real time communication framework. The collaboration between the two companies has already yielded an active open source community around the framework itself.

I've enjoyed exploring the new Nokia 770 Internet Tablet, a sleek hand-held, multi-function device that supports Web browsing, sending and receiving e-mail, playing audio, displaying video, and more. It connects to the Internet either over a home or public WiFi network or through a Bluetooth-enabled cell phone. Connecting this device to my secure WiFi network was a snap.
