I agree that it looks really good!
It kinda makes things organised to have a Nokia netbook with a Nokia mobile phone.
Now, when is that SE netbook coming? I'm sure it'll look sleek alongside an equally sleek Rachael.
It's not what you do or even how you do it but in what state of mind you do it: Dups! 2009 |

I guess its just the concept of having a Nokia netbook its something new for them and the customer will probably buy them. I can just see alot of business men having this with their Nokia business phones. No doubt it will be sold with a contract mobile broadband.

Oh its ok i like taking words out of peoples mouths lol. Anyway i like the look of this it looks smart sounds smart and with HDMI too wow. I bet this might start other phone manufacturers making them although Samsung and LG already do. I am not sure weather LG are any good at making laptops or netbooks does anyone know? Never seen one but i know they make them. Come on Sony Ericsson lets see one from you. Its good having a laptop matching your phone brand it could catch on. The name Nokia on a netbook is cool i say. I wonder where Nokia may go next? Its even going to have Windows 7. Very good.

That's a very highspec smartbook; I bet the price won't be cheap but then it's likely that it'll be sold along with a fixed term contract including data. I'd rather have that Nokia than the Dell mini 9 that VodafoneNZ are supplying.
Don't forget that SE fans who want a laptop can follow in James Bond's footsteps and buy a Vaio.
My Vaio CS integrates quickly and easily with SE phones especially via BT. |

Netbooks on WM, Internet Tablets on Linux Maemo and Symbian S60 on their smartphones, these three are going to be sharing apps soon thanks to Nokias purchase of Trolltech, using Qt will allow NOKIA to make the same apps across the platform in Ovi Store  its looking realy good for NOKIA right now, cant wait to have some of those Maemo apps on my S60.

Probably.
There's three ways they could do that.
1) Nokia could design a pre-installed app to utilise the wifi or 3G connection. That would be state-of-the-art. I'd say 50/50 chance of that (Nokia do state-of-the-art well).
2) This type of Netbook/Smartbook is taylor-made for network operators to sell bundled with a data plan. There may be some network operator App that includes calling.
3) Windows Vista already includes BT software that allows you to store your contact list and dial out from the PC using a BT connection to your mobile. I'm sure W7 will likely take this further?!?
