24 August, 2009
Strictly speaking GSMArena.com is not the place to source information about netbooks or laptops. But when the world's leading mobile phone manufacturer decided to debut their own netbook product we just couldn't...

      as you'd expect from Nokia, nice, clean, sleek, Euro style design-hope it is considered for a design award-it also has surprisingly long batt. life

              OH so why not talk about Nokia Sparrow or the upcoming Sony Ericsson's smartbook. Lets bring Samsung and Lg's notebook line up as well.
              Then add upcoming Dell and google devices......!!

              Honestly speaking I don't know where this is leading to GSMarena!

                Wow! I'm impressed! Built in 3G, now you don't need that awkward 3G dongle in the usb. HDMI port is great, i think it's the first on a mini laptop, and built in GPS navigation, so you don't need to connect to internet, awsome! I am so getting this one, and i know Nokia will be reasonable with pricing as they alway are. They won't charge so much more than it's really worth.

                A funny observation though, it so looks like a N-series formfactor, which is quite funny.

                    Build Quality seems very good, A-GPs is a good idea too !

                    Autonomy is cool too.

                      Doh with DBV-H around it means if you acquire this notebook you will be able to enjoy this feature without paying the premium for receivers

                                  I kind of expecting this notebook come with moblin OS (http://www.moblin.org). since nokia did wrote a lot on GSM/3G part of the moblin OS kernel (to be used on nokia Maemo)

                                  And a moblinOS on nokia booklet, will really make the booklet really nokia-ish. Good job on 12 hour usage battery. It's really cool when you can use it for 12 hour without charging.

                                  *Moblin and Maemo based on the linux.

                                      So, GSMArena, if you're gonna star talking about nokia's netbook you can make some comments about N810 and the future N900, ha!? That would be sweet.

                                        Anonymous, 24 Aug 2009How about that Nokia are now making better laptops than app... moreGood lord, don't start this again. Every other thread it's always Nokia this Apple that. Apple this Nokia that. Who cares? How 'bout you try talking about product? That's why the article is there in the first place.

                                        On that note, I saw that vid. Basically, 3G connectivity, Wi-fi, HDMI ports, Bluetooth, A-GPS (really?), and Windows 7 (that made me smile).

                                        I wonder what the full specs will be like, and if any phone carriers will pick up on it (AT&T anyone?)
