Nokia to Launch Googleized Net Tablet
By Ed Oswald | Published May 12, 2006, 3:20 PM
Nokia and Google plan to announce Tuesday a version of the cell phone manufacturer's Internet tablet device that comes preinstalled with the Google Talk. The service would allow for voice conversations and instant messaging on the device, which uses a Wi-Fi connection to connect to the Internet. According to the Wall Street Journal's sources, the device would be available globally at a price of around USD $390.
Along with Google, Nokia is talking to other companies about porting their communication software to the device. The Nokia 770 Internet Tablet was first launched in September of last year. It allows for web and e-mail browsing, as well as multimedia playback.
How to googleize someone, put all their personal details onto a web page thats index by google!
Then you can make a TV show with a hidden camera and jump out and say 'You've been Googled!'
Maybe google can make a fridge/freezer that index the products/ingredients you have inside, my own googleized fridge! (Now, should I patent that idea so in 10 years time I can sue some guy who does something similair? or is that only a US thing that seems to happen daily)

|Nokia makes consistently good kit.
The problem here is the tablet form factor just hasn't been thought out properly. Too many people nicking poor ideas from Star Trek if you ask me! ;-)
Out of interest, has there been any companies that have suceeded with the tablet form factor yet?

|Not that I am aware of.
There are some *very* happy tablet users out there, but I think they are *way* too few and far between to make it a successful market.
