I think the nokia + Intel partnership is great as it MIGHT be a step towards the days when we can just buy hardware and run whatever OS we want on it and connect to whatever wireless provider we want to.

I just bought a toshiba nb-305 with some new qualcomm chipset in it and it is an x86 atom processor and it has some qualcomm gobi chipset in it and I can connect to wifi or cdma or gsm networks. I think ti is f****ing brilliant. I mean, why not have something that can just connect to whatever?
