LucaFiligheddu.com: Apple iPod Touch vs Nokia N800

  • lelego · 2 years ago
    Actually iPod touch is very limited when it comes to media formats. So N800 is a clear winner there. Other things you forgot include for example: camera, radio tuner, java, flash, office applications, bigger screen and voip. Of which the iPod provides none..

    Lelego, you make some good points. I mentioned the video call and VoIP capabilities in my post, of course. Java and Flash are must-have, but office applications are really not that good on the N800. I use it everyday and still not completely satisfied of those applications.

    I was going to buy the N800 for listening to internet radio, web searching, emailing from remote/ coffee shop locations. Showing h264 clips from my portfolio to clients and of-course " youtube ".

    All the above can be done on the itouch, and with ease. Youtube plays the way it should unlike the N800. The itouch is cheaper; and stupid as it sounds, more sexy looking. If I need 16gb then 100 bucks is a no brainer too. Anyhow, just IMHO.........

    Nice job on comparing the two products. I personally like the ipod touch because I can keep my music and videos separate from my phone. Phones have more wear and tear and I am usually upgrading my phone every few years.

    I went for N800 simply because of the Linux OS, Bluetooth, VoIP, Screen resolution (800x480), etc. You can watch a DivX movie without having to shrink its resolution. Simply download, transfer to your SD card and watch. It's too awesome!

    can you use the n800 camera 4 video calls to pc's or only to other n800s? also is there any way to watch youtube vids on n800 with smooth playback other than uktube because that requires mplayer which wont install on my n800s os2008. any info on both subjects would be great p.s does anyone know any good apps 4 os2008?

    You can use Gizmo for video chat. It works to anything including to a PC. Youtube also works with the pre-installed Flash plugin. Mplayer is still a Beta version for OS2008. We need to wait until a stable version is released.
