Nokia Internet tablet


Nokia Internet Tablets is the name given to a range of Nokia mobile Internet appliances products. These tablets fall in the range between a personal digital assistant (PDA) and an Ultra-Mobile PC (UMPC), and slightly below Intel's Mobile Internet device (MID).[1]

Early trials

Nokia had plans for an Internet tablet since before 2000. An early model was test manufactured in 2001, the Nokia M510, which was running on EPOC and featuring an Opera browser, speakers and a 10-inch 800x600 screen, but it was not released because of fears that the market was not ready for it.[2] The M510 was first leaked to the public in 2014.

Maemo

Nokia Internet Tablets run the Debian Linux-based Maemo, which draws much of its GUI, frameworks, and libraries from the GNOME project. It uses the embedded-targeted Matchbox as its window manager it uses Hildon, a lightweight GTK-based toolkit designed for handheld devices, as its GUI and application framework.

Alternative distributions

Maemo can be replaced entirely by a number of other Linux distributions.

  • NITdroid is a port of Google's Android.[3]
  • Ubuntu has been ported.[4]
  • Mer is a new distribution created by combining Ubuntu with the open source packages from Maemo.[5]
  • Gentoo an unofficial port of Gentoo Linux is available.[6][7]
