The missing info you’re looking for is price and availability isn’t it. Well RingNokia seem to think it will have an unsubsidised price of 750-800 Euros which isn’t bad. Its subsidised price could be under 350 Euros which, to be honest is going to be very attractive to those considering UMPCs for basic browsing/video use. The only problem could be the high DPI.
Availability – 3rd quarter.
