Q. Can you call a cell phone or landline with the nokia internet tablet , know it is not a cell phone but it has voip and since it could do online video calling i was wondering could it call a regular phone too.
If so how do you do it and is it posssably free?

A. Since the N800 basically runs Linux with XWindows, you can run Linux applications on it. While I don't have an N800 myself, according to Wikipedia, Gizmo Project and Skype both run on the N800. Skype has the Skype Pro calling plan which costs $3/mo and allows unlimited calls to the US and Canada (provided you're in the US or Canada, determined by IP address), or unlimited calls to the country you're in plus a connect surcharge. You could also subscribe to a pay per use plan. Gizmo Project is similar, except you can sign up with Grand Central and this will give you a free US phone number and free unlimited incoming calls. Also with SIP Broker, there are local telephone gateways that will allow people around the world to call you (as a free Gizmo Project user) as a local call at no charge to you. Gizmo will call out too for similar pay per use prices as Skype, definitely much cheaper than any landline or cell. With either Skype or Gizmo, you can call toll free numbers for free. If you're in the US, you can call 1-800-GOOG-411 or 1-800-CALL-411 and have those free services look up the phone number you want to call and it will connect your call for free so in essence you can have free, nothing per month outgoing and incoming calls to/from the US.
Should I get a notebook or a tablet computer?
Q. I have enough money for (an inexpensive) one. I would really like to get as much use out of it as I can. Preferably, I'd like an operating system on it (Linux would be fine).
I would like to use it in my car, but I'm concerned that a keyboard would be cumbersome.
Can one suffice for the other, or are they different enough from each other that you really need both?
If you have both, which one do you wish you would have gotten first?
Your advice is appreciated.

Can a Wacom Bamboo Tablet plug into a HP notebook?
Q. I am getting a Wacom Bamboo Tablet soon and my Mother says she will have my laptop if it can only go into a Desktop... I google it but they didn't have the answer. any help?
A. The tablet is a USB device and as long as the OS on the notebook supports it then it will work.
The Bamboo Tablets work with XP (SP2 or above) , Vista and Windows 7 (as well as Mac OS X 10.4), so unless you are running a flavour of Linux it should work straight out of the box.
