Nokia Multi-Core Linux MID

Nokia Multi-Core Linux MID

Nokia might be one company that comes out with pretty dizzy phones, but that doesn’t mean they are willing to rest on their laurels. Nokia CEO Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo already plans to jump aboard the laptop bandwagon, and could be working on a multi-core Linux MID where we’re looking at a 2011 release date. Assuming that is so, we could see ARM’s recently announced multi-core Sparrow processor find a home inside, alongside a form factor that slides in all directions to access different functions. While the Sparrow processor is meant for netbooks, it will surely be able to make its way into MIDs as well. As for the operating system, we’re looking at a “novel, transparent widget based interface” where individual applications will have their own “semi-transparent widget to put it’s content in.” Interesting times sure are ahead of us.
