Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

very interesting for it to be listed in ovi store it must be very close to release whatever it is, maybe meego conference announcement incoming after all

eldar once mentioned a tablet of the same name

below is direct link to the listing
http://store.ovi.com/?terminalId=Z500

EDIT: Z500 app and other stuff as been removed from the store

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet/netbook leaked on ovi store, maybe meego?
 

Well Elop said that MeeGo would be 2011 thing closing the possibility of MeeGo releases for this year and then Savander even said couple of days ago that the MeeGo announcement would be 2011 thing, so i very much doubt that.
Or could it really be running windows like the original rumour was? It will be pucket loads of fail if it will.

Btw here's Savanders interview to those who are interested. http://asia.cnet.com/reviews/mobilep...2204005,00.htm

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leake on ovi
 

theres even one app in the store under new. maybe what they using to run tests, someone try send app download to n900 or something then will know what os the tablet runs lol

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet/netbook leaked on ovi store, maybe meego?
 

not windows i dont think b/c the z500 app page recommends updating to latest firmware via NSU before using it.
windows does not do updates via nsu;)

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet/netbook leaked on ovi store, maybe meego?
 

The Z500 naming has just been a bit weird from the first time this rumour surfaced.
I would not like anything more than to see Nokia's MeeGo(-harmattan?) tablet announced in MeeGo Conference but i see the possibilities of that happening very small.

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leake on ovi
 

MeeGo for Intel is already ready to go on tablets as of 1.1. Nokia is releasing an Intel tablet before new year? Or will it be ARM? If the later is true, then we are talking a year from now.

Z500 ? Intel or Arm? We must have a poll :D

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

Where is the connection between tablet and Z500? The Z500 may very well only be a phone. Why would Nokia sell the first tablet in India?

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

I wish it is ARM.. otherwise , I won't be interested with it.

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

the Z500 tablet name was leaked months ago todays cock up on ovi confirms its real.
Nokia sell globally just b/c the app they are testing is from india does not mean its launching there first.
also i'm sure they have a factory in chenai, and developers and engineers based in india so that might explain why they testing an indian app.

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

if the tablet is running the UI from intels meego pre-alpha video i want it, i will preorder NOWWW

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

Typical eldar ********, what an a-hole :\

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

rx-71 ? rx-71 ?

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

did anyone find away to get that app

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

Not following why you're blaming Eldar.

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

they removed the app from the store

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

The tablet ui that was demoed in june was quite impressive imo, so this could be quite interesting. I hope it's not too expensive though. The tablets out today are a bit too expensive for what they offer.


I think he was referring to the "Nokia Tablet Z500 is out to the world, nothing special or great, btw" comment by eldar. A bit of a sensitive subject that man :)

Edit: here's a demo of the tablet ui on a moorestown tablet: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iVIKYF7MOzU
And here's a nice walkthrough: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4vv7yFaqxw

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

agreed. dual-core A9 or nothing.

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

How about the software? If the Z500 was using Moorestown, wouldn't it mean there were tons of x86 software easily portable from other Linux distributions? Though most of them aren't designed to be used with touchscreen UI. ARM-based architecture would be better for N900 users as both devices could benefit from each other.

The key thing for completely new software is Qt, obviously. But still, it's an interesting descision.

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

Yup, the Chennai factory is HUGE, by the way. I've heard it described as a small city...

Anyway, I'm intrigued by this Z500 stuff...

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

Unfortunately even the announcement will be 2011 at earliest.
http://asia.cnet.com/reviews/mobilep...2204005,00.htm

Still i'm at least as interested about the MeeGo tablet from Nokia as i'm about N9. Like some others here it's ARM what Nokia imo should use inside that tablet, but we will see.

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

Can't lie... I'm intrigued by this announcement. But I'm not in love with the Z-series moniker. It is the last letter of the alphabet. Hope that doesn't denote that it's the last of its kind from Nokia.

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

ROFL... look what you have done!

:D

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

I wouldn't read too much into that. "Z" seems to have cool resonance with consumers (BMW, Chevy Camaro, etc) and there's a lot of numbers available after 500.

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

For Nokia the last letter in the alphabet would be Ö. And there's still room for Ä and Å before Z. ;)

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

just testing maybe.....!!

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

Heh i have been lost why all the blogs and news sites have had 770 pictured next to this news. :D Bit random pic, no?

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

I knew I shouldn't have edited out my disclaimer that Z was the last letter of the English alphabet.

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

Well, the main binary-only programs in use on typical x86 systems are:

• Skype -- but a (more integrated, less featureful) version for ARM should be included
• Flash -- but a version for ARM should be included
• WINE -- possible on ARM, but native would save qemu overhead
• Various hardware drivers -- mostly irrelevant because the hardware cannot be attached; perhaps some USB peripherals?

Since most of the x86 software is open source, x86 has very little advantage.

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

I'm pretty sure it started as a joke or accident and went viral. :D

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

Hehe!! I am currently in Chennai now ;)

Wishful Thinking: Hope India gets the MeeGo Mobile-Computer right from Day 1.

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

Not sure why but in the 2nd page of the google-images result, there is our t.m.o sachin007's icon!!

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet/netbook leaked on ovi store, maybe meego?
 

No, it runs SYMBIAN.

Haha, sure hope it doesn't!

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

lots of software that is not designed to run at 800x480 and with touch input.

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

Quoting his tweet

"Nokia Tablet Z500 is out to the world, nothing special or great, btw"

saying that like we were waiting for a Magical and revolutionary device , no one know what OS it runs , not even how it looks

Re: Nokia Z500 tablet meego leaked on ovi
 

This involuntary 770-lookalike hoax made my day on so many levels...
