Nokia, the leader in worldwide cell phone sales, announced on Monday it is developing a netbook, the Nokia Booklet 3G (Nokia-supplied photo above). The company has seen its earnings and market share drop as the iPhone has taken the world by storm.

Speculation has been that Nokia might look at a Symbian-powered netbook, but the press release states the device will be powered by Windows. Not much was detailed, but with a 10" screen and an Intel Atom CPU, the Nokia Booklet 3G is clearly a netbook.

Other specs:
  • HDMI port for HD video out
  • 3G/HSPA
  • wi-fi
  • up to 12 hours of battery life
  • 1.25 kg weight
  • a front facing camera for video calling
  • integrated Bluetooth
  • SD card reader
  • integrated A-GPS
Given the 3G support, perhaps carrier deal(s) will be in place to subsidize the price of the netbook. Further information, including detailed specifications, market availability and pricing, will be announced at Nokia World in Stuttgart, Germany, on September 2.

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