7 Must Have Apps for the Nokia N800/N810 Internet Tablet

February 9th, 2008

The Nokia internet tablet is a handy little device to do a great deal of tasks when you’re on the go.  By adding these seven applications, you can do even more.

Applications I’ve added to my internet tablet:

1. GPE-Calendar - a great little calendar app that helps me keep track of all my appointments.  By also using  Erminig, I can sync GPE-Calendar with my Google Calendar.

2. VNC Viewer - remote control software allowing you to view and interact with any computer running a VNC server.

3. Canola - This application turns your internet tablet into a mini media center for playing music, videos, podcasts, viewing photos, etc.

4. Maemo WordPy - a fully functional WordPress client for blogging.

5. Other Maemo Weather - Applet for your Home screen for displaying weather conditions.

6. Gnumeric Spreadsheet - GNOME spreadsheet app.

7. Pidgin - a multi-protocol IM client.  Definitely needed if you chat with protocols unsupported by the native client.

    HELP! My 17 yr old son just got a N800 and arranged somehow to mess up my computer while I’m online. Is there something I can do to secure my computer info? Did he load something on my laptop to do this.
    Thanx
