Nokia adds QWERTY to Linux tablet

An anonymous reader writes: Nokia today announced its third Linux-based Internet tablet. The new N810 tablet is smaller, heavier, and faster, with a slide-out hardware QWERTY thumb keyboard, GPS receiver, FM transmitter (for in-car listening), and a light-sensing screen dimmer. It retains the same ARM11-based processor as Nokia's earlier N800, albeit clocked a bit faster. A full Mozilla-based browser with Flash 9 and Windows Media file support are also new, and are claimed to offer the best AJAX Web 2.0 experience on any mobile device. Next, Nokia plans to add WiMax to its Linux tablets, it has promised.
