It's taking their sweet time who ever it is.... actually this makes me sure it's Nokia. :D

They certainly have been very vague with their "answers". Will be big fail if it's just one more Android tablet.

WHAT?? LOL

I think maybe it is a 50% chance of being a Nokia, but - it is all in the US and everything is very "american" in all the details. Nokia would have made it more international-ish. Nokia is also coming with something, but this may not be it. I think this is Amazon or Motorola.

I'm just playing with the new nok...Tabco tablet. They have used my name for the last time.

These two items seem more prominent even though the subject is the same.

Oh well. Let's see what they learned from the last attempt.

definitely not Nokia..

Re: Do we have a Nokia Internet Tablet in waiting? Tabco
 
Even if I really love the idea of having a Nokia/Meego tablet with an innovative UX, I still have some doubts:
- the website is very unprofessional
- it has a very vulgar and unelegant style (a company like Nokia would rather not alter its image...)
- very much focused on the CEO
- "We think you’ll be way surprised": according to the speculations, Nokia would not be a big surprise!

TabCo definitely looks more like a smaller company, like Fusion Garage (which failed with the JooJoo tablet). Its CEO loves to talk about "his" ideas and visions, was born in (a suburb of?) Singapore and studied in Oxford ("a very great college"). Or not.

Fully agree; though had it been Nokia, it would have been a brave move to try to work on their image in the US.

Anyways, whoistabco FB page is now referring to them being "all over the grid", the message was posted around the same time as the FG FCC info leaked ...

Too bad; My original guess wat that all their talk about the CEO was just to be read as reference to the OS..

That is what I'd like to know. My thought, is that if it is Meego, it is Intel.

Goodyear, Spirit of Innovation. They started in 1898 in Akron, Ohio but was named after Charles Goodyear, from Springfield, Massachusetts.

isn't the goodyear thing also a reference to the UI elements in the new tab?

Sounds like it only means that MeeGo devs are still being supported, for now.
Not that there's another MeeGo device.

Springfield, Massachusetts? Why the hell does that sound familiar?

Question #16: Is it Rubik’s Cube interface style?
Answer #16: There will be elements of the interface that might remind you of a Rubik’s Cube.

this looks like Rubik's Cube for me

There was. Eldar actually leaked that name way before it appeared on OVI store, over year ago. Eldar didn't say anything about the OS back then.

Srsly doubt this is Nokia...
Would be a massive boost for MeeGo if it was though.
Can't be a WP tablet this soon.

That's actually a really cool commercial. Nicely done. A little eerily "cult"-like for either side by the end.. but still a good commercial.
