Nokia Booklet 3G Up for Pre-Order in UK
Dec 18th
For our readers based in the UK, here’s your chance to be the first to get the Nokia Booklet 3G. If you don’t mind spending £649 for this Windows 7-powered netbook you might want to pre-order it now from Nokia UK site. Should you do make your order, expect your Nokia Booklet 3G to start shipping in January.
What’s good about this though is that the Booklet 3G which Nokia UK is offering will not be tied up with any network operator contract. So, it’s up to you to find a 3G mobile plan so as to maximize the netbook’s 3G capability.
As a reminder, for that expensive price you’ll get a 10.1-inch netbook powered by a 1.6GHz Atom Z530 CPU, 1GB of RAM, 120GB HDD, Wi-Fi 802.11, Bluetooth 2.1 and a 12-hour battery life.
Still interested place your order now at Nokia site.

Nokia Booklet 3G Available at Best Buy for $199
Dec 13th
Yes folks, you read it right. That Nokia Booklet 3G which was previously available for $299 has just received a price markdown and is now available for $199 at Best Buy. But of course since this is supposed to be a 3G-capable netbook it should always come with a mobile data plan. And we all know that this was already snagged by AT&T.
So the Best Buy offer which we heard is ongoing only during the Holiday Season will still require you to enter into an AT&T service contract. The Nokia Booklet 3G will be available at all Best Buy locations starting on Dec. 13.
Although it will still tie you up with a data plan from AT&T, the $100 discount is still a good deal especially if you so long wanted to have this Nokia netbook.
As a review, the Nokia Booklet 3G runs Windows 7, loaded with Intel Atom N280 CPU, comes with HDMI port for HD video, webcam, 10.1-inch HD-ready display, integrated A-GPS with OVI Maps and the latest version of OVI Suite.

Laptopmag took the Nokia Booklet 3G for a spin and found that although the said netbook looks great from the top to the bottom, it’s performance doesn’t live up to its great design.
The Nokia Booklet 3G boast of a MacBook-like design with an aluminum-covered body. The only problem that you’d probably find with the netbook’s design is its cheap plastic keyboard. Other than this, the netbook will surely please users who are looking for a great looking netbook.
Laptopmag’s final verdict? While there might be some issues with the performance of the Nokia Booklet 3G, the bottomline is that the netbook’s design and form factor might win you over plus the fact that it is 3G-enabled and can give out 8 hours of battery life.
But then again, you must also consider that there are other netbooks available with equal if not better specs than the Nokia Booklet 3G which is currently sold at $299.
