More and more people will get to know the Nokia 770. Marshall Brown, profiled in the NY Times as visionary geek lecturer turned entrepreneur, lately inked a deal with Nokia to provide its open source Internet Tablet for free to WiFi users in public parks.
But there’s more. The Gizmo Project landed on the portable device. By the same time, as Michael Robertson a couple of months ago, Gizmo to the Nokia 770 should be the prelude for the official release of Gizmo 2.0 for Linux.
So far, the VoIP software developed by SipPhone landed with all the regular functionalities: Free calls with other SIP-phone users, voicemail, and conference calls; charged call out to non-SIP-based phones, and a 10-digit U.S. phone number, to support incoming calls.
For those who haven’t heard about the Nokia 770, the Internet Tablet is build on a concept, that a mobile device could be something between a desktop computer and a cellphone. It totally runs on a open source platform, doesn’t provide cellular connectivity and so far, has been relying on Google Talk to voice communicate. Linux Device has a screenshot of the Gizmo on N770.
