Experience Web 2.0

An all new Web 2.0 experience awaits you with the Nokia N810 Internet Tablet. Connect via Wi-Fi and fulfill your online entertainment needs using the browser based on Mozilla mechanics with Adobe Flash 9 plug-in. All this packed into the open source Linux platform.

The Nokia N810 Internet Tablet has a fully capable Mozilla based web browser that supports Flash 9 (this includes YouTube), an email client that is POP3 or IMAP4 capable, instant messaging client supporting open standards chat protocols like Google Talk that can do both text chat and voice calls. There is also a very active 3rd-party development community that is writing software for the N810’s Maemo interface which is built on the Debian Linux distribution. Such popular software includes Skype and Pidgin, a multi protocol instant messaging client.

What surprised me was the quick loading speed of websites using N810’s Mozilla based Web Browser. I have been using E65 to surf websites using WIFI and the N810 loading speed is much faster in comparison. The N810 is also able to play flash-based streaming web sites like Youtube and Veoh with no problems. Adding to the fact that it has a High-resolution 4.13″ WVGA display, surfing the internet on such a compact device has never been more enjoyable.

Net surfing on a handheld device has never been any easier with N810. The web browser in this device is Opera, one of the popular mobile web browser. However, unlike its mobile counterparts, it is essentially a full browser; it displays all webpages just like what you will see in a PC.

Moreover, it has integrated Adobe Flash Player, meaning you can view online videos such as YouTube right off your N810!

Blogging has never been so much easier with N810. Uploading images to photo services websites such as Flickr and Photobucket is a breeze.

I will say the web browser is quite powerful because I did not get any error nor get any browser incompatible issues whilst surfing on the N810. You can even watch video clips from YouTube, browse online photo albums or purchase movie tickets from Golden Village without any problems. Internet banking is not applicable here due to the lack of support for Java on the N810 though.

With the Nokia N810’s Mozilla Browser, I can easily visit Web 2.0 websites without worrying about its support for new technology like Ajax. I like the ‘Zoom’ functions key that aids me with portions of the website that is too small to view.

The Mozilla-based web browser is sufficient to replace full fledged PC browsers, kudos given especially to the scrolling feature by dragging my finger across the web page. YouTube works like a charm on the Nokia N810, and you’ll find a fast and useful e-mail application for those on the road replies.

Within minutes, I was onto Wireless@SG and surfing away happily. At first, the words and numbers are too small, but with the handy zoom button around - no problem at all! I was able to effortlessly check my Gmail and Google Calender, and then off to check out a few other websites.

Being an Internet Tablet, connecting to the Internet was a breeze. Wanting to fully utilize the ‘internet’ capability, I decided to use as much internet applications as possible, including GoogleDoc to do my word processing.

The web browser is fantastic and it feels just like a real browser. Though it doesn’t have the addon capabilities like Mozilla Firefox, it beats all other mobile browsers hand down! All the pages load just as they should and Flash sites like YouTube loaded effortlessly.

I’m quite satisfied by the web browser in N810. The page loading speed is comparable with what you get from a desktop, coupled with an excellent idea of having full screen & zoom buttons on the top left corner.

As an experienced user with Opera mini on my D810, N95 8GB’s integrated browser and Safari on my iPhone, I didn’t expect to find any browser to be better than Safari which I had thought to be the best. To my surprise, I have a full fledged browser on the N810 with a surfing experience similar to what I have via my home browser. It was even able to load websites like Speedtest.net and complete a round of speedtest.

The web browser was stable enough to load multiple pages such as Facebook and speedtest.net, albeit there was a slight slow down in its interface speed. Although the browser did come with zoom buttons, it was unnecessary due to the N810’s large screen resolution.

Surfing on Wi-Fi connectivity was smooth, with the device downloading quickly and rendering the pages for display swiftly & accurately when the browser is set to display in ‘full mode’.
Display-aside, the browser proves to be very capable going through your usual ‘tasks’ on the internet, playing back YouTube videos smoothly.

Nokia has done away with offline PIM and bundled a Mozilla-browser with Bookmarks to Google Apps for office suites. In other words, the device relies highly on Internet connectivity, as its Internet Tablet namesake implies.

With WiFi 802.11b/g, I was able to easily access Wireless@SG at many locations. With the integrated microphone we can actually make free Skype calls from the device. Watching YouTube on N810 could get a little laggy, making me unsure if its due to the wireless connection or the device itself. Nonetheless, it delivers a decent quality for your viewing purposes.
