Re: New name for internet tablet
 

Ok... my lecturer asked me what do I need my "communicator" for.
Maybe it would be the clue.
"Mobile Internet Communicator"
or
Pocket Communicator
WEBLET?

Re: New name for internet tablet
 

new name for the tablets?

"mine"




mate: "Oh cool, whats that?"
me: "its mine"
mate: "no really, what is it?"
me: "ok, its my nokia personal computer"

Re: New name for internet tablet
 

I actually think that "internet tablet" isn't bad - weblet sounds OK too imho, netlet sounds kinda weird to me.

I'd use the term "Communicator" or "Com" for the HSDPA tablets...but then again, that term is reserved for the E90 and its predecessors I guess.

Re: New name for internet tablet
 

I admit that weblet sounds better than netlet.

Re: New name for internet tablet
 

if we managed to add a few more bits of hardware on, could we possibly call it a tricorder?

Re: New name for internet tablet
 

I'd call it my *****.

If Nokia does this, I promise to buy 10 of them, no matter what they'll cost. :D

Re: New name for internet tablet
 

Wouldnt the release of the nokia tricorder coincide with the release of some movie or other.
