Nokia 7700 - "Multimedia Terminal"

howler.fi writes "Nokia today announced a Series 90 -based "multimedia terminal", the Nokia 7700. It's not really a phone or a PDA, but something inbetween. The device sports nicely sized 65k touch screen and the usual features you'd expect from a device like this. Should offer interesting competition for the Sony-Ericsson P900, though the 7700 is not expected to ship until Q2/04."

It might not be a phone, it might not be a PDA, but it shure as hell looks like the back of a pair of Etnies I used to wear.

Who wants to pause their viewing/recording to answer a call?

yes, let's get all our kids even more addicted to non-interactive content so that when their "multimedia terminal" runs out of batteries and there's no one telling them what to think they can get all twitchy and nervous.

this is the world i want to live in.

Another Devil Consumers' Tool for Piracy

[Archalien]

Wow. From the look I see on Nokia's site, they expect this to play movies and Nokia seems to be playing "the whole 10 yards" on their website which is a sequal to "the whole 9 yards" that isn't even rated yet.

MPAA be advised: the devil consumers are about to have yet another tool to steal food directly from the mouths of set painters, grips, make-up artists and stuntmen of the world. Quick - sue the Internet for providing the infrastructure for pircay.

(...sarcasm...)

This is true..

I am currently browsing the web on my IBM AT, and I have 640x480 resolution. And it is entirely acceptable. I have only one eye, however.
