The Register has weighed in on the Nokia N800 Internet Tablet.

Best part:

Wi-Fi is certainly the preferred connection mechanism for the device, which will happily connect to a network, download RSS feeds and email, and disconnect, all without the user being aware. Indeed, whilst wandering around London with the N800 in my pocket it had been downloading up-to-date information without my knowledge. In a mobile phone such behaviour would be annoying, as it would probably incur network charges, but on a Wi-Fi tablet it was pleasant to have this information close to hand when I wanted it, without having to think about when to connect or where.

Can’t say that I agree with all of reviewer Bill Ray’s opinions or conclusions. But isn’t that always the case? (And I have my say here.) Wrapup line: “The Nokia N800 is a fun toy that could possibly be the future of mobile telephony. Or perhaps not.” Gotta Have It score: 75%.
