Better design - this one is already dated before it was releasded.

CPU Upgrade - needed.
Memory upgraded - needed.
BT version upgrade - Needed.

It needs a button you can assign to swap the orientation for apps that support that. (Like eBooks, browsers, etc)

It needs a jog-dial to scroll web-pages. The directional page jumps to links in a page. So if you want to see some content without links all over it, like an article, tough luck.

Again, maybe this is configurable though. If those two things were fixed, I'd be all over it.

But the attached keyboard idea is lame. If I wanted a keyboard I'd use my laptop. I agree with the previous poster that it should at least be detachable.]]>Feb 14th 2006 12:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/Seriously, the 770 is perfect for me as it is. I want to be able to browse around the house and at work. Here's to hoping Nokia won't follow Apple's lead and will actually lower the price on the earlier unit instead of just "phasing it out".]]>Feb 14th 2006 1:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/
I was thinking that Apple should put something out soon, which would be sweet.]]>Feb 14th 2006 1:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/Feb 14th 2006 2:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/Feb 14th 2006 3:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/Feb 14th 2006 3:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/Aug 19th 2007 11:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/Feb 14th 2006 4:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/
Nokia 770 works great with the Stowaway Bluetooth Keyboard from Think Outside http://www.thinkoutside.com using the following plugin http://770.fs-security.com/keyboards.html.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Nokia 770 keyboard looked like the following http://www.mobilemag.com/content/100/335/C1757/.

The next Nokia 77x needs better memory management (more user memory?), better OMAP processor for fluid video, and better media codec support... TCPMP software. The Web is not static anymore.]]>Feb 14th 2006 5:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/Feb 14th 2006 6:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/Feb 15th 2006 12:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/Feb 15th 2006 12:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/Feb 17th 2006 3:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/
With slightly beefier hardware specs, It will suit all my needs.]]>Feb 19th 2006 1:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/
The onscreen keyboard is much better than the windows CE one... The handwriting recognition is ok, but the screen is not nearly as sensitive as the HP windows CE machine I had for a couple of weeks.... it's a hardware problem not the software.

SD instead of MMC would be an improvement....

Changing the key assignments to add hardware scroll instead of tabing between entry boxes would be a great improvement.]]>Feb 21st 2006 4:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/1) I hope they don't make it any bigger. It's right at the cut off point right now of what I'd buy and what I wouldn't

2) the aftermarket PIM applications out there don't cut it. Nokia MUST release the next gen with a proper calendar with adequate alarm functions and an address book.

3) I could care less about the keyboard, although they may want to look at what Msoft did with Origami's that's pretty cool. proper sync with APPLE and PC

4) More battery life. Does it currently have a swappable battery at least?]]>Mar 9th 2006 9:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/
Thank you]]>Apr 12th 2006 9:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/14/nokias-got-770-followups-in-the-works/Things the 770 might improve (some might already be there...haven't looked in a couple months) esides just adding a keyboard.

Video out, Audio out- make it a moble media center

usb host - add external devices

more processing power

More ram/ more flash, both are cheap.

lose sd entirely and go CF. an 8 gig microdrive is a wonderful thing.

from what I hear, more media codecs, more browser plugins.

make sure the software is entirely open source, and provide the source.
