As expected, the Nokia Booklet 3G netbook appeared at the Nokia World conference today.  A few more details have emerged regarding the GPS-wielding portable device, adding to what we found out last week from Nokia’s official announcement.  Here’s the spec list:

  • 1.6 GHz Intel Atom Z530 CPU
  • 1.8-inch 120 GB HDD, 4, 200 RPM
  • 1 GB DDR2 RAM
  • 1280 x 720 resolution, 10.1-inch display
  • assisted GPS
  • Wi-Fi
  • Bluetooth 2.1
  • 1.3 megapixel webcam
  • hot-swappable SIM card slot
  • accelerometer
  • USB 2.0
  • SD card slot
  • HDMI

In addition, the Nokia Booklet 3G supports the heat generated within its 0.78-inch thick design by employing a metal casing.  Probably a smart idea given the removable 16-cell battery that lasts for a reported 12 hours.

Nokia tends to charge big for its gadgets unless they’re subsidized by carriers and the Booklet 3G is no exception.  Though it’s expected to be subsidized, if not, the price is a massive €570 (US$810)!
