Hi Jackie.

Yes, probably though I'm guessing here, but flash memory is going to be used for storage. On a netbook or laptop, if you use a flash based hard drive rather than a mechanical one and its a low power high quality model, you can expect to extend your battery life by up to 20-40%. To give an example, someone running an NC10 using a flash based drive would probably be able to get 10 hours out of the machine at a push, but certainly 9 to 9.5 hours could be expected given the capacity of the battery.

All the best, Ibrahim.

Hi Ibrahim

Indeed.  The battery life on this device is certainly encouraging
though.

Hi Jackie.

It was only a matter of time before this happened;  We'll soon be seeing
ultra mobile laptops and pc's with built in phone applications, similar
to the way in which the pocket PC works, where the phone is an
application un to itself.  Of course, this will present a whole new raft
of accessibility issues for the top screen reader manufacturers, because
scripts will need to be written to work with the phone applications
which of course will varied from device to device.

All the best, Ibrahim.

NOKIA PRESS RELEASE August 24, 2009

Nokia Booklet 3G brings all day mobility to the PC world

Espoo, Finland - After more than 25 years as a pioneer and leader in
the
mobile industry, Nokia will bring its rich mobility heritage and
knowledge to the PC world with the new, Windows based, Nokia Booklet
3G.



Powered by the efficient Intel Atom processor, the Nokia Booklet 3G
delivers impressive performance with up to 12 hours of battery life,
enabling people to leave their power cable behind and still be
connected
and productive. Delivering the rich experience of a full-function PC
inside an ultra-portable aluminum chassis, the new mini-laptop weighs
1.25 kilograms, measures slightly more than two centimeters thin, and
has the features one would expect from the world's leading mobile
device
manufacturer.  A broad range of connectivity options - including 3G/
HSPA and Wi-Fi - gives consumers high speed access to the Internet,
including Nokia's broad suite of Ovi services, and allows them to make
the most of every moment and every opportunity.

"A growing number of people want the computing power of a PC with the
full benefits of mobility," said Kai Oistamo, Nokia's Executive Vice
President for Devices. "We are in the business of connecting people
and
the Nokia Booklet 3G is a natural evolution for us. Nokia has a long
and
rich heritage in mobility and with the outstanding battery life,
premium
design and all day, always on connectivity, we will create something
quite compelling. In doing so we will make the personal computer more
social, more helpful and more personal."



The mini-laptop also comes with an HDMI port for HD video out, a front
facing camera for video calling, integrated Bluetooth and an easily
accessible SD card reader. Other premium features include the 10-inch
glass HD ready display and integrated A-GPS which, working with the
Ovi
Maps gadget, can pinpoint your position in seconds and open up access
for a truly personal maps experience. The Nokia Booklet 3G also brings
a
number of other rich Ovi experiences to life, whether its access and
playback of millions of tracks through the Nokia Music Store, or using
Ovi Suite to sync seamlessly from your Nokia smartphone, to your
mini-laptop, to the cloud.



The Nokia Booklet 3G will widen the Nokia portfolio, satisfying a need
in the operator channel, and bringing another important ingredient in
the move towards becoming a mobile solutions company.



Further information, including detailed specifications, market
availability and pricing, will be announced at Nokia World on
September
2. For more information on Nokia World, visit:
