The top of this Internet Tablet Users blog says “This is a blog maintained by Internet Tablet enthusiasts, founded by Mike Cane.” That fudges the truth in several ways — hardly anyone else is contributing to the “users” blog except me, Mike never wrote anything called “internet tablet users blog,” which is a name Reggie Suplido and I came up with, and, most importantly, Mike prefers the forum-type chronology (earliest item first, latest item last) to the blog-type (newest on top) and wouldn’t ever write a blog in a form like this one.

But over at an unnamed Palm site, Mike began writing a blog-style forum thread back in May about the newly announced Nokia 770, one which drew in everyone whose interest had similarly flared. He moved that forum-thread-cum-blog here to itT later in the summer and would be writing it still except that — passionate as he is about the 770 (about everything, apparently) — he was fortunate to discover he wasn’t driven to write the way he always had, a combination of worldwide coverage, offhand remarks and reference to every related development in phones, portables and fantastic gadgets. Nor — this happens — did he have the time to do that anymore.

Two weeks ago, Mike chanced across one of the many 770’s Nokia is seeding among those who will help the device succeed, if it indeed it succeeds (okay, okay: he got one free at a Nokia party; so did everyone else who came) and things haven’t been the same since.

Mike started writing about his experiences, in the form he prefers most, a thread here in the forums at Internet Tablet Talk. It’s called Mike Cane’s Live 770 Blog, and it bears all the unmistakable Mike Cane imprints — great enthusiasm, disdain and information no one else has uncovered, with miminally annotated links. The detailed exploration revealed in his seminal review of the 770 shows up here too.

We may see a Mike Cane review of the 770 — events have precluded this till recently — in future. We’ll keep our fingers crossed. But this is for those 770 users who don’t yet know about this font of information — start at Day 1 and hold onto your hat!
