Boy I would love to get my hands on one of these. It would seem inevitable that Nokia would venture into netbooks, having built the N770 Internet Tablet years ago. But I guess the reality of building an actual netbook (the “NokiaBook”) would seem to stray from their core competence. However, recent developments in the industry — namely the partnership with Microsoft for a mobile office suite and the relative success with their software services (i.e. OVI) can’t detract Nokia from the fact that they are strengthening their position as a wireless leader.
What I’m most excited about is the sync tool. Since I’m a Nokia user, I’d be more than happy to do wireless syncing without the hassles of plugins.
