June 11, 2007 = Skype + New OS

Just 12 days to go... I am so excited.

Re: June 11, 2007 = Skype + New OS

I hope you aren't holding your breath.

Re: June 11, 2007 = Skype + New OS

Any ideas what to expect besides Skype? What sort of improvements are we looking at? I'm hoping for higher version of flash support and really smooth viewing of flash video.

Also, for audio, more codec support and better integration.

For Opera, more Java support. :)

Better integration of contacts+PIM stuff....if possible..

Where did you get this news from ?

Re: June 11, 2007 = Skype + New OS

The only thing I hope is that Skype will not be part of the ITOS when it's released but a separate package. I wouldn't want to waste precious space.

Re: June 11, 2007 = Skype + New OS

Its an internet tablet, I want skype integrated into the same contact list as google, with more robust contact features. Connectivity is key, and on a small device I don't want to worry about loading apps, I just want it to work.

Then later this year we 'll have an
-updated browser with better WEB 2.0 support and other goodies
-improved multimedia support with more formats supported
-improved package management to better enable sw upgrading
-interesting 3rd party software such as Skype and Real Rhapsody
-more apps & stuff downloadable from http://tableteer.nokia.com/ (can be accessed with an internet tablet, only ....)

Considering that all these things are pretty much done, other than the package management... Maybe we're going to see Opera 9 Mobile on this firmware? That would make me so very happy. I understand that it has overview modes and built in zooming capabilities, I hope they implement that for us.

I like how the N800 renders websites, but it could definitely benefit from some better input / navigation.

Speaking of which, have you guys looked at the Foleo? Its running opera 9 mobile! its a sign ;)

Is this fact or something you made up to start a thread?

Re: June 11, 2007 = Skype + New OS

Someone was throwing around June 11 in some earlier thread. Nobody can possibly verify this of course, so it's just a rumour at this stage.

I wouldn't bank on this date based on my own inside info.

Not saying it CAN'T happen... just doesn't look likely. Consider it a bonus if it does. ;)

Is you information/sources available to registered developers? or only employees of Nokia? Just curious.
