I now have the Nokia N82! So far I am impressed. It is a very capable device. The camera is so much better than the E61i, the GPS works very well, and the HSDPA network is nice (and dangerous because of my dataplan). Besides that the device function very much as the E61i which I liked very much. From time to time I miss the keyboard of the E61i, but I have to give it more time to conclude.
The HTC TyTN II is now passed on to a colleague of mine. It worked relatively stable, I just had to reboot it a couple of times. The camera was not as good as on the first TyTN, but still much better than the E61i. I keyboard have an awkward feel - you're not certain you pressed the key, so from time to time I pressed twice by accident. The keyboard on the E61i is much better, but the TyTN II (as the first TyTN) is much more comfortable to hold in your hands.
While the TyTN II works much better than the first TyTN, at least in this short time I have used it, it is still not a device for me. I blame the OS most, but probably have to blame my willingness to adapt as well! More important though, is the fact that the TyTN II and the Oqo O2 is to close in functionallity. I chose to go for a smaller phone and the Oqo O2. Maybe I'll try to get my hands on the Nokia N810 as well, I think that will be a better inbetween device than the Oqo.
One last thing about the TyTN II. The GPS device and the Tomtom software works quite well. Together with the assisted GPS software that get some info from the internet to precondition the GPS, it very quickly locks in and starts showing correct location. I have one small nit though. First time you boot Tomtom you can select and download one free city. I, of course, downloaded Oslo, Norway, as this is where I live. But I got the impression that I could download other cities so far. So, when I traveld to Berlin last week, I thought I just could pay a few $10's and download Berlin. That proved not to be possible. I could have bought the full Western Europe for like $60. Problem was that this was a 1GB download - at the time I figured that out it was too late for such a big download over my ADSL, I would have been on the plane long before it could have finished. So I had to stay in Berlin using the old style maps. This was not as flexible as it should have been!
Stay tuned, I'll report on the Nokia N82 soon!
