Re: Nokia launches a Netbook in 2011 ?

Maemo and Moblin will continue to exist as software platforms, no change to current situation but we will align more of what is underneath the UI framework and APIs.

What does the Intel/Nokia announcement mean in regards to hardware for Maemo Devices?

We will have more choices finetuned for Nokia, also for Maemo Devices. Not only ARM-based chipsets, but also other options.

...which is probably the best news of all.

The enemy is fragmentation.

While not exactly bad news... it's rather boring.

Very cool; sounds less like a netbook and more like pushing the IT to the area in computing that it needs to go (think: Kindle+Maemo+near Morph)...

...Intel getting in on the open source end here is what they should have done from the beginning with Nokia/Maemo though. I always felt that Moblin was not a smart move except from its nearly clean-sheet perspective.

Eldar Murzan (sp?) talked about an IT-like device (N97 with the feel of a notebook) that would be something on the plate as a really revolutionary device for this year. I wonder if this partnership is the further pushing of that platform, and even more, the positioning of Maemo as having a much bigger role in the driving of Nokia's device and community interactions for the short-term...

...in a sense, a company becoming a broker and service-tier provider, utilizing their influence and relationships to create the kind of energy that open source commuities have only had in spurts.

That's the kind of thing that will change all kinds of ballgames... uhmmm
