I have been using PDAs and other mobile devices of all sort for quit a while now. It has been a long way from my good old (still working) hp 200lx running MS-DOS 5.5.
My newest acquisition is is a web tablet from Nokia called N800. Unlike the other devices of the n-Series the N800 is no mobile phone but a web surfing tablet PC running Linux.
Although still sitting on my desk I was not allowed to open the box yet, because it is my birthday present (at least partly) and so I have to wait another 26 hours. ;-)
I spent most of my free time last week searching the internet, looking for good places with in-depth information about the N800. As the device is running a flavor of Linux (http://www.maemo.org) and uses a variant of GTK+ and I am really looking forward to programming this nifty device.
Being a Windows Mobile user for several years now I have always been disappointed by the lack of source code compatibility to the "real" Windows versions.
There are already some very good reviews of the N800 (e.g. http://www.hanno.de/blog/).
