That looks like it's just a rehash of the same article.

Not only that, but they seem clueless as to the existence of the N810; they mention the N800, and even the "WiMAX version of the N800". :rolleyes:

That actually is quite common in the blogsphere. Too many so called "experts" talking out their *** like they know something, and ultimately make real journalists like myself look bad. (*rolls eyes in frustration*) Sometimes it makes me wish that these guys would engage their brains before spewing half the nonsense they call news. *sigh* Sorry, pet peeve of mine. Didn't mean to rant.

Anywho, on the topic of the laptop, knowing Nokia, it'll most likely be a netbook. I don't think (and I say "don't think", as this is my opinion, and not based on any facts that I know of) they will go with a full sized one, given the type of devices they typically work with. I could be wrong, and I'd love to be, but I really feel that if they did do a laptop, it'll likely be a netbook.

<sarcasm>And also, I like the design of the tablet in the concept picture in the first post. If Nokia released the new tablet with a design like that, I'd be cool with that. :D</sarcasm>

Note: Post edited to include notations indicating when legitimate speech ended and sarcasm began since I committed an epic fail at sarcasm in the first attempt. ;)

Mockup is complete garbage by someones rich imagination. It doesn't deserve to be shown...

allnameswereout: lol. I appear to have failed at my attempt at sarcasm in my last post. Or more specifically in my mention of "liking" the new tablet design. I probably should have added <sarcasm> tags to the beginning and end of that line to clarify when I had stopped being serious and when the sarcasm had kicked in. Ah well. Epic fail for me. hehe. I guess I'll just go back and edit my post for clarity.
