A load of hoompa made for pageviews, and that picture is bullocks. If that picture is true (its probably a mockup), it isn't a netbook nor a Macbook nano. Its a tablet with touchscreen, aka smartphone-without-phone. Like the NIT.

I don't believe Apple sees a market in this because these devices don't add much compared to an Ipod Touch or Iphone Touch. Why not? Because these 2 previously mentioned devices already provide Internet with WiFi and 3G, and Apple doesn't provide much 3rd party development, or allow things like tethering. You want 24/7 on a tablet, and Nokia understands this. In any case, it would not be as versatile as our N900 or N8x0. You don't need MacOS X to surf the Internet...

A nettop for travelling and a laptop for home/business might be worthwhile for some, but the interface on the picture is touch screen.

The 770 and N800 were touchscreen only, and sold rather well.

The N800 would still sell rather well, if it were on sale.

That picture is definitely not legit. I was reading a blog the other day where the guy had 4 or 5 mockups of an apple tablet that he WISHES Apple would make and that pic is one of HIS MOCKUPS. It has nothing to do with Apple. I'll try and see if I can find the blog again.

It still doesn't have 104" quad-hd display, so it sucks anyway.

Looks like a nice mookup, but its just that. And besides, its way too thin. A tablet thing as thick as a USB port and has a display? No I don't think so. And the on-screen keyboard takes up more than half the screen? Unusable. But I would like to see Apple come out with a ulta-portable device that isn't a phone.

Wouldn't that be the ipod-touch?
