From other comments looks like Nokia is interested in Linux based phones. It is highly probable it prepares whole line of devices which will depend on this kernel but no one of them will have all features provided by software.

Ah, you're right. I ignored the configuration. It looks very unlikely that there will be IR anything. A sunset technology that should probably just ride off. Maybe go down to Florida and spend some time with his sister "the fax." Thanks.

(This is not a response to any past post that I know of, it is a thought I had today regarding the next NiT and it's associated soft/firmware.)
I saw this...
... Couldn't this concept be better realized with a combination of hardware and firmware in the next tablet?
That is:
Leave the form factor the same as the N810 however, when the tablet is held upright as in fig. 4, the active application auto-rotates and reduces to take up the top half of the screen. An on screen keyboard appears on the bottom half (if selected as a user preference
).
Rotate the beast back to landscape mode, as in fig. 6, and the app re-sizes to take up the full screen. If the screen is tapped in a text field and the keyboard is closed, an on screen key board pops up a la the N800.
When the keyboard is open, it behaves as the N810 does now.
***
Some variant of auto-rotation would have to be included in RX-51 for me to take notice. It would also have to run at a fast enough clock, for it to be effective.
Lag time sucks. Just ask an owner of a new Blackberry.
The ability to easily manage multiple streams in a household WLAN and near real time HD video streams via the WWweb, will be what is expected by the public from the next "must have" device.

Eheh. That keyboard looks 100% like the one in E71. So I'd first look at which model of E-series this might apply to. Also, just because of schematics, doesn't mean the implementation(s) look like the schematics. For the patent doesn't include the keyboard as being part of the patent it is merely used here in the example. Perhaps for good reason, perhaps not.

hell, take a look at the redfly, its basically a larger keyboard and screen for smartphones...
(altho a N800 with font size 20 and a bluetooth keyboard works wonders for typing forum posts
