Been thinking about what I’d like in the Nokia 770 that fits how I use it.

I guess I’d like a PDA-like thing — instead of just a listening capability, I wish I could record too, to make quick memos to myself. When I’m in transit, especially walking to the train, entering something in Notes can be more trouble than it’s worth.

We know there’s a microphone. I wonder what it would take to make an easy “press this to make a voice memo” application work on the 770? Or port — anything like this already on the Linux desktop?

Update: Well, I guess actually I can use my cell phone to record voice memos, and I carry it around everywhere as well. Am I the only one having trouble wrapping my mind around the notion that Nokia expects PIM functions to be handled in your phone and not the 770? I mean it makes sense, but I’m still not thinking that way . . .
