Nokia ARM-Based Smartbook To Follow Booklet 3G?

It was only on Monday that Nokia confirmed its first laptop, but now DigiTimes suggests the Fins may use either Compal or Foxconn to build an ARM-based smartbook for 2010. If true, my guess is it’ll run Maemo 5.

I say that because ARM-based processors like Qualcomm’s Snapdragon processor don’t support Windows, and here’s Nokia with its own Linux-based OS. That said, we’ve also heard plenty of rumours (since denied) about Nokia looking at Android. We’ll have to wait and see. [DigiTimes]
