The very first Nokia netbook has been raising eyebrows as one of the first Windows 7 netbooks on the market. It's 10.4 by 7.3 by 0.8 inches, and the full specs have finally been released by Nokia.
For example: the 10.1-inch display will have an admirable 1280 x 720-pixel resolution, come with a 1.6 GHz Atom, and 1 GB of RAM. There aren't many surprises to be found in that list of features, but a few other aspects of the Booklet 3G might strike your fancy – namely the 12-hour battery life.
The Booklet 3G will naturally supply 3G wireless internet, with versions for North American consumers and consumers in the rest of the world. Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR and Wi-Fi come standard, as do a 1.3 megapixel camera, 3 USB 2.0 ports, a SIM card slot, SD card reader, and HDMI 1.2 port for HD video. Oh yeah, and a GPS reader and accelerometer. Sweet!
Another attractive bonus in the Nokia Booklet 3G is the suite of Nokia desktop software which includes "Ovi Suite 2.0, Nokia Music for PC, Ovi Maps, Social Hub, and Nokia software updater."
Naturally, these features come at a cost – $820 (€575), to be exact, making this one of the most expensive netbooks ever. Naysayers are going to keep saying nay until the Booklet comes home, but if Nokia has its way, we consumers just won't give a damn.
Expect the Nokia Booklet 3G by October, following the release of Windows 7.
