It seemed like pre-Elop Nokia was a nice place to work, and now that the guy is gone... well, i don't blame them.
Just wondering, is there some actual tablet that is using that same HW configuration?

Just a speculation: So if Amazon bought a license for Nokia brand name for its product, released a Nokia tablet and had it manufactured by Foxconn (or whatever manufacturer), Google would be completely fine with approving Play Services for such Nokia?

Also, Nokia has previously released Nokia X which used a fork of AOSP which is an exact violation of Google's rules.

I know they still can work something out, as Google certainly wouldn't mind a new brand on their side, but both Nokia and Foxconn have broken their rules.
Google (and any other businesses alike) are free to define their relationships to other businesses case by case. Even as it would seem to "violate" somebody's business. Remember, there's nothing here that matters except what gets written under the line at the end of the fiscal year.

Now seriously, does that matter at all?
Nystrom confirmed that they decided in May to come back to consumer branch. If you look into their recent activities, you'll find several clues that they're up to something.
Regarding MeeGo, well, it's hardly unlikely that anything would happen soon, but knowing Nokia, at one point they wpuld part from Android and start searching their own way.
edit:
Anyways, nothing much will happen before 2016.

edit: and almost 8 inches screen... if it will be possible to install Linux on it, and a nice case with builtin keyboard will be available, maybe I will replace my old netbook.
unless they goofed and left an open PCIe slot for a SIM carrier.
As far as hacking past the bootloader,
I will not rehash what I already said about the horrors of
INTEL Chit-On-a-Ship systems and how wildly unworkable they are.
(I will note that many Chinese tablet touts seem to avoid
the use of the term Bay Trail in their advertisements)
Cap that with a
locked Android bootloader
(unlock that then you spend weeks trying to load stuff, hopelessly)
- a single USB 2.0 port (?= means they could not afford 3.0 =?)
- a single port is an utterly frakwitted idea worse than no USB port at all - and a complete lack of phone system connectivity
(Nada, zip, zilch, empty, zero GPRS/LTE)
and you have a tablet
which will be bought by the dozens
and filling landfills by appointment.
If this is designed by new Nokia trainees and none of the old hands,
it would be almost mandatory they grease a BROADCOM
WIFI+BLUETOOTH SDIO interface into the backside,
just to make matters officially impossible.

The fact that @nokia on Twitter totally ignored me asking about the lockdown, tells me, yes, I am pretty sure it is locked down. This also seems like a fact when you know just a little bit about Intel and the existing devices based on their chip(py-****)-sets.

If the Nokia n1 had an active digitizer then it would be a perfect replacement for my Galaxy Note 8, but it doesn't. The specs show it with a 64 bit CPU, which means it would probably have support for 64 bit efi and thus might be able to run linux. The main issue is still the powervr GPU and the lack of x86 linux drivers. Maybe libhybris could be used as a work around.
