Unboxing The Nokia N810

If you liked the previews of the N810 we've shown before, you'll be glad to know that it's finally out. Here's what the package looks like, including impressions on the device.

Overall, I think that the N810 is a relatively impressive device, but the mediocrity of the built-in keyboard and the limitations of the free GPS software detract from the value of the most significant changes between the N800 and the N810. The N810 is still a very good product, but not enough to justify the $450 price tag when the N800 can be purchased for under $250. Potential N810 buyers are probably better off waiting. Those who regard the built-in GPS as a killer feature should also keep in mind that they will have to pay more for the full version of the WayFarer software in order to really make full use of the N810's GPS capabilities.

If you've been anticipating this, then I'm sure you'll find the comments a bit of a letdown. Maybe we'll get an upgraded version in the N810i. Not that there's an actual product like that. I'm just following Nokia's naming conventions.
