PhoneReport on a little field trip

That's right, from tonight I will be travelling to the Kruger National Park, to the Limpopo Transfrontier Park, and then to Maputo.

Of course, this is only to test the potentials of the N81 8GB Special Edition and the Nokia N82. I'm not going on holidays or anything.

I will hook up the N82 to my headrest monitor and as the headrest unit has a FM transmitter, I will hook up the cables to it, and select the frequency in the car. I do know the directions, but let me see if the GPS application knows it as well. Bedfordview to Crocodile Bridge Gate...it's going to be few hours and I don't think that the phone will survive, therefore I will switch off 3G and switch off the backlight, as I will be looking at my 7" monitor.

The N81 8GB will only be tested soundwise, as I have tested everything else...and of course some NGage as well.

To add up, nothing better than a comparison between the N82's camera and the N95's. I will geotag every image, and track my route with Nokia Sports Tracker.

In most areas I won't have internet coverage so I will rely on the available and scarce, most probably none, hotspots.

To keep the blog updated, I'll take my tablet PC along, although I will have difficulty in find hotspots in Maputo, nevermind in the national parks.

It's three days, lots of fun, and lots of testing as well.
