Microsoft’s Mobile PC Newsletter Features Linux-enabled Nokia N800

Filed under: General, N800 — tabrez @ 8:20 pm

Microsoft’s Mobile PC Newsletter of the month of September(2007) features a section on Linux-powered Nokia N800 Internet Tablet about an article written by Matt Faulkner on gottabemobile.com. The website basically features Windows powered Tablet PCs and UMPC devices. As Matt himself says:

We don’t deal with too many devices that aren’t Tablet PC or UMPC related, but there are a few that enhance our ‘Mobile’ life, and the N800 could be one of those devices.

Fair enough.

Microsoft Newsletter Features Linux Internet Tablet - Nokia N800

But what took Microsoft’s “Mobile PC” Newsletter so long to mention a mobile product that is almost nine months old today? It’s not even a detailed review of the product, just a short post by Matt! I felt strange that such a passing mention of a nine month old Linux-powered product found space in Microsoft’s newsletter :)
