We’ve heard many rumors and announcements of a Nokia laptop – the Finnish mobile giant has, so far, stayed out of this market – but now it’s truly official, pictures, specifications and all. Its name? Booklet 3G . Why is it interesting? Well, when the largest manufacturer of mobile phones enters a completely different market for the first time, it’s definitely more than just another netbook. With ongoing rumors about an Apple tablet/netbook, Nokia may be trying to set itself as a player in this space before the competition does. What are its specifications telling us? Well, it’s definitely big on connectivity: it’s got Bluetooth, WiFi, 3G and a SIM card slot, which makes it a netbook with all the connectivity options

of a mobile phone. It has an integrated GPS plus a copy of Ovi Maps, which is also different from most laptops. The rest of its features are, well…netbooky, albeit nearer to the high-end of the specter: an Intel Atom processor, Windows 7, 10.1 inch screen, and all that encased in a 0.78 inch aluminum body. So, no huge surprises here: it’s a netbook you’d expect Nokia to make, but not a game changer. It’ll be interesting to see how Nokia follows up, especially when (if) Apple launches its fabled netbook/tablet. Check out an introductory video below: Reviews: Bluetooth Tags: netbook , Nokia
