I was a little frustrated with the translating tools' rendition of this article, so I asked my sister to translate it for me.

Her version:
Wanadoo will be the first internet provider in Spain to offer a package deal of their ADSL services and the new pocket-size 770 Internet Tablet from Nokia, which Finland demonstrated yesterday in Madrid. This comes as the international broadband congress and the city have welcomed broadband into the area.

The 770 is the first mobile terminal 'that is not a telephone' explains Janne Jormalainen, Vice President of Mobile Enhancements at Nokia, who indicated that there are more negotiations in the works with other operators. The new device will be out the end of this month with a recommended price of 350 euros although the manufacturer is looking for a possible subsidy from broadband providers.

The communication terminal, which is designed to navigate the internet, manage electronic mail, view photos and videos, or stream music, will run on Linux and will incorporate a Wifi connection so as to allow for wireless services via the internet

Nokia is preparing a new version of this device, which works with a stylus pen and has a great screen with high resolution, that will include Internet telephony (VoIP) and Instant Messaging. In just a few days, Wanadoo promises to reveal all the details.
Since the broadband conference that took place in Madrid occurred in October, well after the end of 3Q, I wonder if the Nokia reps there were indicating "available at the end of the month" from their general perception of how delayed it is. Or did the reporter just not understand the date?
