It seems like Intel is announcing later this week their own flavor of internet tablets they are calling MIDs (Mobile Internet Devices). From a presentation document (PDF) Intel has officially released, what we can gather are the following:    Foundation leverages Gnome Linux Desktop Technology, GTK+, DBUS, GConf     Intel developed user interface called 'Master User Interface'     New Linux distro called RedFlag MIDINUX (v1.0 to be available sometime May)     Support of the Intel 915 chipsets     Finger-friendly     Applications  &n bsp; Browser, news reader, IM, VoIP     Media player, audio recorder, image viewer, camera     GPS, email, PDF reader, Bluetooth    18 second boot time, 3.2 second resume time
From the screenshots, the MIDs look like Maemo with Intel's customized front-end Master User Interface (MUI), finger freindly, application launcher. It is not yet clear how far Maemo and RedFlag MIDINUX will inter-operate but you can be sure that both platforms will be covered in Internet Tablet Talk. A lot more images after the jump.
