Nokia 7700 - "Multimedia Terminal"

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the get-your-lust-on dept.

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?

    Apparently people in Finland do...

  3. Another Devil Consumers' Tool for Piracy by Archalien · · Score: 2, Funny

    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...)

    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.
