Rumor says a Nokia Smartbook can be here by mid 2010

Nokia has just uncovered its brand new Nokia Booklet 3G mini laptop, and before you could take your eyes off – Digitimes reports of a Nokia Smartbook in making.

Nokia could use Compal Electronics or Foxconn Electronics as the manufacturer for this project. Note that the Booklet 3G project is already outsourced to Compal. The Nokia Booklet 3G mini laptop will be powered by an Atom and will run Windows 7. The best part about this mini laptop is that it will offer users 12 hours of non-stop computing (as per company claims). It has a 10.1” HD display and also has an HDMI port to watch HD videos on an external HD source like an HDTV. The external shell is made out of Aluminum which makes this mini laptop really light, weighing just 1.25Kgs. This device is just 19mm or 2cm thick. The Booklet 3G has been equipped with 3G/HSPA ready for rapid mobile broadband anywhere-access on the move. Wi-Fi has also been wedged into its slim body. Moreover, it supports hot-swappable SIM card functionality.

On the other hand the Smartbook specifications are not known. The Booklet 3G will be available in early 2010, but Nokia's first smartbook is not expected to hit the market until mid 2010.
