Nokia launches a Netbook in 2011 ?
 
A good alternative to the N900 ? This might be the N950 ?

Meanwhile, UMPCPortal and Pocketables are saying that Intel and Nokia are going to announce today that Nokia will begin using Atom chips. (and I certainly hope that this relates to their netbook and not to any of their other devices)

Hopefully that announcement will also involve Nokia finally announcing their netbook line. The idea that it might wait until 2011, when we've heard they're already assembling them (and 2011 is WAY too late for Nokia to enter that game), is kind of absurd. I'd think 2009 or don't bother.

Patience till 2011 to get confirmation ? That's a heck of a patience you are asking for :D

Or how about making the patience time lesser by <whisper>revealing</whisper> some dates ?

It's a device that Nokia will deliver in a 9" convertible tablet format, running Maemo... right?

RIGHT!? :-)

Probably you'll get the confirmation later today, at the Intel-Nokia announcement.

It is what the rest of the industry calls a NIT. :D

A tablet to them often refers to Pen based PC's, a marketing experiment from a few years ago.
