#Nokia #netbook available October 22 – in #Germany

Nokia’s just confirmed that its first foray into netbooks, the Nokia Booklet 3G, will be available first in Germany in just under two weeks’ time.
22nd October is the date and although there’s no UK announcement, we can get an idea of how much it might cost us. Germans will be asked to cough up €249 (£231,$367) to take home a 3G – plus €20/month (£18.50,$30) on contract. That totals a whopping £675 ($1,078) over the lifetime of the two-year deal.
Expensive it may be, but the built-in 3G, Assisted-GPS chip, HD screen, HDMI port and stonking 12-hour battery life – together with its MacBook-esque carved aluminium chassis – go some way to justifying the price tag.
