Turbulent times for nokia.
But, hell, the render looks kinda cool. I'm just noting digging on the "iPhone button". If it looked more like just half a mac-book, I would definitely consider getting one.
Then I would load Ubuntu on it.

Hmph. The assumption you could run Ubuntu on it is not necessarilly good. Obviously I'm just speculating, but to me it seems a lot more likely to be (as suggested by the linked article) an 800x480 or so iPhone-like device, so non-x86. Hardware-wise, I'm not seeing any real advantages over a Pandora or N9xx, and very little over an N8x0. Considering the likely cost difference, I'm unlikely to be interested when it is released.
If, otoh, it turns out to be the long-awaited MacTablet or UMPC, it'll just be another sweet piece of hardware with a bit too high a premium for me.

Looks nice but I hope there will NOT a sim card slot in it.
It turns out that most devices without a sim slot sell hundreds of $$$ less than a comparable device with a sim card slot.
e.g. N810 vs N95/ n96 or e71
iPod touch vs iPhone

Even tho Apple is great with keeping stuff under the lid, I think it's probably EEEs or similar devices running Leopard/Tiger which show up in the server logs.
