Back in 2005, Nokia released a tablet. Well… it’s not really something you would describe as a tablet today. But it let you browse the web, check email, play media, and even install some third-party software. Also it ran Linux… so you know it must’ve been good.

  1. Hello Michael MJD It The Mind Of Orin here I’d like to thank you for being one of my role models and inspiring me to be the person I am today I love computers retro tech and especially Windows 7 related stuff I’ve become quite a tech guru because of you and other tech YouTubers thank you for being one of my role models 😀

  2. Got mine in a clearance sale back im 2008 and tinkered with it for a while. It was awesome for SCUMMVM. I also remember to have mangled some episodes of The Office into shape, so I could watch something close to a slide show on my daily commute until 2010. The life!
    It still collects dust here somewhere. I never bother to turn it on anymore, as I remember it rebooting constantly due to RAM starvation.

  3. I still have my Nokia 770 and it still boots up last time I checked a few months ago. I got mine on the early beta program in 2005 and used it for years from mobile sysadmin and even sat nav amongst other things. Absolutely loved it 🙂
