Following on from the review round-up I want to highlight two video reviews of the T91 that you need to check out.

The first is from our friends at Liliputing.

The second is from our friends at GottabeMobile

We’re tracking all the reviews and entering them into the T91 information page.

Welcome to today’s 5-country map-based, near-live media tour. As I travel through Germany, Luxemborg, France, Belgium and Holland you’ll be able to see my position on the live map below. Underneath that you’ll see the main part of this tour – another map that i’ll be updating with media and route info as I go. You should see images, audio, tweets and video if everything goes well. I expect the tour to last about 10-12 hours.
With me I have two Intel based MIDs. The Wibrain i1 and the OQO 2+. I’ve got spare batteries for both and haven’t got any charger with me so it will be interesting to see how much battery I get through. I’ve also got a GPS puck (bluetooth) a USB snake cam and my headset. I’ve also got a stack of podcasts loaded up on my phone!

For information on the roaming 3G services i’m using today, see this post.

Update: Treating myself to a burger and thinking about all the things Ive learnt today. The experiment worked but it was mostly a hand-finished exercise only possible because i had a full browser and a PC. So much more could be automated in software to make this easier. 3G worked well although getting out of the cities highlighted that even European 3G doesnt cover you at all times. Battery life on Wibrain was amazing. I have switched to the 3rd battery to write this but the Wibrain has been on from 0930 until 1900 and still had 1hr left.

Using a MID to take high quality images in the future should really help because software can automated the tagging, resizing, editing and uploading along with local creation of the mashup file although its arguable that a camera would always be better positioned on a phone if its the one device you always have with you.

After realising that I couldn’t use the navigation software on the Wibrain due to the GPS already being used by the tracking software, I had to resort to the smartphone. Man that’s a dangerous experience! I could hardly see the screen. Smartphone navigation is great for pedestrian applications but it canr replace a well designed 4″ experience.

It was a shame that I couldn’t test the ClarionMiND today as the car mount and tailored UI would have really helped. I’ll have a chance to test it next week though so maybe ill re-do a smaller version of the tourr.

Today has been fun and challenging but now its ime for me to clear my table and head out into the car park and back home. Ill try and update this post with thoughts as I have them so check back soon.

Todays experiment and all the content above this line was done with the Wibrain i1 on loan from Mobilx Images created with a NokiaN82
