Well, he is really hot for the iPad so its doubtful he could be behind it.

Hmmm... an office in a sunny part of the land of innovation with a rubik's cube in it?

Yawn....I'm already starting to lose interest. Put up or shut up. I don't want to hear about how amazing and smart your CEO is..... Prove he's smart or please go away. This is starting to smell of typical corporate bulls#&t promises and ego pumping. Come on Tabco, make me a believer!

:) +1

the campaign was a nice idea when it started, but it's a little too much now. just tell me when you start selling it and please don't make the product more expensive by marketing rubik's cubes and hefeweizen in the meantime.

What is the device they are using to "crack" the power/lights/whatever control system?

-edit-

Looks android-ish.

yep definitely looks like an android device to me, i can see the the four buttons on it. does not mean tablet will be android though b/c they seemed to rule android out in videos.

for the people too lazy to watch video it gives a reveal date at the end

In the video description, the reveal date is also posted...

For the people too lazy to watch the video, the reveal date is 8.15.11.

I don't think the video is particularly worth watching.

I hope they have some really lame tablet that noone really want so this campaign can continue even after release...forever!

Who is tabco...forever...ever...

Re: Do we have a Nokia Internet Tablet in waiting? Tabco
 
this article about TabCo press release delivered to ZDNET is interesting, its lists TabCo services partners I think it rules out Android and puts Blackberry in the Frame but does not rule out Nokia
http://www.zdnet.com/blog/btl/your-n...ce=twitterfeed

btw was'nt there a video demo of a MeeGo UX by a company ages back circular Menu system as described in that article?
I think it was a concept by TAT who RIM have purchased recently

i definitely think this is surely related to something Nokia

Check these two pics out....:D The second pic was taken from a video on the N9 some few pages ago with an iphone name in the video title... The back of both look similar...

Or this is somehow a coincidence and this is Motorola.

In the newest video they use a Verizon Droid device (second 31) for some "hacking". And if you look at Pizza´s they sent out then services they will feature are:
- Facebook
- MSN
- Bing

Motorola has said they´ll use Bing as their default search provider so it could be them as well....

A "wheel-menu" similar to the one shown on the pizza carton (first image - source)
was shown before by Acer on a tablet running MeeGo (second image - source):

It's gotta be Nokia i think there is a video in youtube talking about reinventing the wheel. And that is what they told those guys as a hint in zdnet.

Well, they said you could find the Land of Innovation on Google Maps, did any of you actually look?

Basically he (Vodafone)and others O2, 3, Orange all got told the N9 will definately not be released in the UK. I spoke to a couple of the other reps in O2 and 3 networks and they got told the same thing

On a brighter note my mate at Vodafone did say that Nokia are releasing a Tablet next year Q1 which in the reps own words "will be different to anything else on the market" something will apparently be announced middle of next month August.

Dun dun dunnn!! The plot thickens.

TabCo's Tablet 10 Commandments

http://www.whoistabco.com/blog/?p=51

This Is very interesting b/c it takes a cheap shot at RIM for relying on Flash to differentiate Heres the advert i think they taking a shot at, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWv8Bj3-RS4

They also take a few digs at Android too.
I think the only 2 OS's it can now possibly be is webOS and MeeGo

I'm not sure who the Maker is after read number 7 that could be anyone except Apple

Dave999 2011-07-22 15:49

Re: Do we have a Nokia Internet Tablet in waiting? Tabco
 
That sound líke a good deal to switch back to meego(again). Let's go for that if you want to sell some phones, €lop.

W8 perhaps?

Or something completely new (UI wise at least)?

NvyUs 2011-07-22 16:39

Re: Do we have a Nokia Internet Tablet in waiting? Tabco
 
Wont be Windows 8 as its not due for release till spring 2012 or even autumn 2012 if latest rumours are true

Ok, I thought I read somewhere Q1 2012 but I guess it was optimistic.

No 7. Maybe they are referring to the NIT's

govprog 2011-07-23 15:23

Re: Do we have a Nokia Internet Tablet in waiting? Tabco
 
They have designed the booklet 3G with windows 7 on it of course. As a result, it's possible for nokia to design a 10 inch tablet (or another netbook). It sounds unlikely though.

Any one of u things may like me that this is the tab from AMAZON?! they will bring it out in few days so it will be may the tebco!? and not Nokia because Nokia say no to Meego in future and so if is Nokia may just a WP7 or W7

Amazon's tablet runs Android. TabCo's been making fun of Android tablets.

...or somebody else that has put one of many potential linux desktops on a tablet.....all of which would blow away most of the current offerings. We can only hope for something truly novel!

That's what i first thought, but more i have read about them complaining about Android to me it started to sound like they are there to fix Android maybe with custom UI?

http://nokiagadgets.com/2011/07/22/t...-commandments/

When you start to digging deep enough it can be anything really other than Apple. They know majority think they are Nokia and if they are smaller player like INQ them being compared to Nokia will only do them good so making subtitle hints to Nokia while really meaning nothing serves them good.

bbin 2011-07-23 19:16

Re: Do we have a Nokia Internet Tablet in waiting? Tabco
 
I think Nokia has never said that MeeGo for tablets is a no-go, or have they? I still think it is something totally different and not android. How can you differentiate with Android? Something like Sense is not enough.

Sure but would Elops previous comment sound a bit weird to say the least if we had Maemo or MeeGo based tablet announced this year using Qt app framework?
He has said many times that Nokia's tablet would be different and not just the 201th new tablet that nobody cares.
Quite a drastic difference to how he has handled this soon to be released phone that also uses Qt.


This all makes me almost certain that this isn't Nokia behind this as either W8 isn't ready.

Nokiuss60 2011-07-23 20:04

Re: Do we have a Nokia Internet Tablet in waiting? Tabco
 
can any one tell me why Nokia brings no tablet since the N800 ?! They also saw the hype of the iPad to they just hat to take one out of the desk drawer?! Why it take so lang if its NOKIA?!
