Doesn't GNU/Linux have windows? :D

It should be MS Windows, because most OVI services doesn't work in any other OS. Sad, but true :mad:

Love the enthusiasm. Unfortunately it's just a windows netbook with internal 3G.

EDIT:

Ok, after watching this brief clip:

I think this is an awesome product. I just wish it has a more powerful CPU.

Indeed. I'm waiting on the N900 announcement...
I guess that they are saving the best for last. ;)

Super slim, HD, Atom and 12h battery life in the same context somehow sound a bit optimistic...

Yes, the Nokia Booklet 3G is a result of our collaboration announced a while ago. And yes, we working together with Intel on various upstream projects such as ofono and connman as announced previously.

Then I guess this is the likely answer to what the Cseries will be ?

With all this excitement about new devices, new operating systems, new shiny whatever, a plain simple netbook with Windows is a little bit... boring. Might be a good device, we don't know the specs yet, but still... yet another one.

I hope this is just Nokia testing this form factor before they show something more exciting and innovative. ;)

Peter, can you explain while collaborating with Intel on ofono, moblin, maemo, etc, why have you chosen Windows as the operating system and not use the various linux options you have ready at your disposal? :confused:
