T3 does not understand the Nokia 770

T3 wrote in their April 2006 review of the Nokia 770: "Most phones let you check emails, a PDA has many of the same functions plus a powerful organiser, and Sony’s PSP does the Internet, movie and music playing stuff, for £65 less". As much as I like the T3 content once in a while, this time I think they just didn´t understand, what they are writing about.

Surely you can check email on any mobile phone, even on an old Ericsson T39, but there is a huge difference, if you can just see the subject of your mail, or the complete mail including formatting, tables and pictures.

Using a PDA as an eBook reader is possible, but once you read a long book on the gorgeous 800*480 LCD of the Nokia 770, you don´t want to go back to a screen where you see every single huge pixel. And so called PDA-functions like address book, calendar and to do lists live perfectly happy in your mobile phone, which nearly everybody carries nowadays.

And using a Sony PSP with 480 x 272 pixel resolution without touchscreen for web surfing can only be a recommendation for masochists.
