Internet Tablets to become the next Internet Appliance?
Nokia announced their new Nokia 770 Internet Tablet to be available soon. Integrated with Wi-Fi, Opera web browser and small form factor, Nokia is positioning their new toy to "Move the Web".
Other manufacturers will surely follow suit with their versions but will this new gagdet fail like the Internet Appliance a few years ago? My guess is yes. Although the Nokia 770 will be cheap at $350, I whether pay five times for a PC tablet that can browse the internet on a nice big LCD screen and do much more.
That leaves the question why Nokia, why?
