A good partnership. N82 and Everun.

Posted on 01 February 2008 by



With the N82 taking GPS, email reading, rss, photo and video duties (no phone calls today!) and the Everun doing the man’s tasks of rich content creation and with both fitting in my jacket pockets I felt I was able to tackle any task that came up today. Photo-blogging at 1200m (with an aborted attempt at 1500m due to wind, frozen fingers and a very poor GPRS signal) with the family meant that I had to travel light and be quick with my testing. I can’t think of a combination of devices that would have been as good. The N95 would have worked just as well as the N82 as the GPS-capable smartphone but at under 500gm , having no moving parts, HSDPA capability and returning a 4-hour battery life the Everun show’s the way forward for ultra mobile internet devices. It was also very useful for photo reviewing and editing. Rather than upload huge photos to Flickr, I transfered images to the Everun for croping and resizing over Bluetooth. The bright screen of the Everun was far more useful than the washed-out screen of the N82.

Here are a few images taken with the N82 today. I’m extremely impressed with the results. Click through for the unedited versions.







We’re off to Schloss Neuschwanstein tomorrow which is apparently the castle that Walt Disney modeled the Disney castle on. I’m not sure if that’s true but it looks very similar.
