Re: Do we have a Nokia Internet Tablet in waiting? Tabco

Not much to like at the moment unless you like to like the unknown.

Re: Do we have a Nokia Internet Tablet in waiting? Tabco

hehe.... good one Dave!

anyway browsing through the facebook page you might stumble upon this post "Trying to sell your obsolete tablet? You’re in luck—we’ve put together a helpful guide to selling your tablet on eBay."

Jukka Eklund from Nokia replies to this asking "where, when and what"

Two things are clear
1. It is not Nokia
2. It is Meego....

Re: Do we have a Nokia Internet Tablet in waiting? Tabco

given the cheap videos too, could be more of a silicon valley startup...

in fact the first video looks to depict a bunch of dudes who stumbled upon an new way to watch gay porn and say "aha"

SO WHAT COULD THE rubiks cube as a hint mean? Finger/hand gestures, where you can swipe from left/right/top/bottom? Just like you flip the cube on all oour sides to align the colors?

I wanna play guess the conspiracy game too :P

I googled "in 1974 nokia" (with quotes) and found this PDF http://www.helsinki.fi/iehc2006/papers3/Oinas.pdf

Oy Nokia Ab Elektroniikka established a military radio telephone factory in Oulu in
1973 (see Figure 1). Civilian production of radiotelephones and other communication
equipment was promptly transferred to Oulu, because there were capacity and
government subsidiaries available. In October 1973 Nokia electronics production
employed approximately 200 people. Nokia established a new electronics factory in
Oulu in 1974. Nokia’s research and development stayed in Helsinki at the beginning,
but already in 1976 a Nokia production manager Aarne Soikkeli stated in Kaleva that
the University of Oulu has significance for educating people for the development.47
Later the University of Oulu was often named as the first “University of Nokia”.48

Hints towards nokia + "(and possibly the fact ithe company started in 1974)"?

Nokia was established in 1871. :)
