Comments on: Nokia Booklet 3G: 10 ways it beats a netbook http://www.electricpig.co.uk/2009/08/24/nokia-booklet-3g-10-ways-it-beats-a-netbook/ The only tech you need Sat, 11 Feb 2012 06:21:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Jonathan Morris http://www.electricpig.co.uk/2009/08/24/nokia-booklet-3g-10-ways-it-beats-a-netbook/comment-page-1/#comment-27041 Jonathan Morris Tue, 25 Aug 2009 09:20:11 +0000 http://www.electricpig.co.uk/?p=39393#comment-27041 Nokia has stated it is an HD capable display, with 1280x720 video resolution and HDMI output, but they've carefully left out any promise of actually playing HD content. A lot of people are unsure whether it will be able to decode and play HD content - at least not without re-encoding videos first. So, I'd say that point 10 is just a 'maybe' and probably 'unlikely' unless there's some extra hardware in the Booklet 3G that we don't know about.

I use my Dell Studio 1535 laptop for university and it can feel quite heavy at times. I'd much rather carry a lightweight mini-laptop than a heavy full-sized laptop. I just hope Nokia's Booklet 3G isn't too pricey. I like the way it looks and at 1.25kg with 12hrs of battery life, you really can’t go wrong.

It was only a matter of time before Nokia started making notebooks. Looks sleek. It was only a matter of time before Nokia started making notebooks.
