Nokia_770Nokia announced yesterday their first non-mobile-phone-gadget since they focused on mobile communications (for those that unfamiliar with Nokia’s history, they did all sorts of things from cables to wellingtons in the early days).

The Nokia 770 looks like a great device for internet-browsing. I’m a little confused that they decided inculde Flash Player 6 instead of 7 (FP7 does exists for Linux, doesn’t it?), but I’ll get me one if the price tag is somewhat acceptable.

The only thing that’s missing is 3G (or even GPRS), so you have to find a Wi-Fi hotspot whenever you want to browse the web. But that’s where the Nokia 7710 comes in.

  • Have you bought your nokia 770? I am thinking of importing 2 sets with my colleague. $680 Sing dollars including shippment. Is it a good deal…Any clue anyone?

  • No, I’ve not bought the 770. Shortly after this post rumors got around about the Origami project from Microsoft and I’m still waiting to get my hands on one of those to check out which one is better.
    $680 Sing sounds like a ok deal. I guess the street-price in europe still is 399€, but that may have changes…
