Hi!
> Again, this week, during the LinuxWorld event in New-York, Nokia
> unveiled its first tablet-PC (Nokia 770, http://www.nokia.com/770)

> http://www.linuxdevices.com/news/NS5409534614.html) ! The day after,
> Nokia announce that they will release patents for Open Source
> development (as IBM did)
> (http://yro.slashdot.org/yro/05/05/25/1827259.shtml?tid=155&tid=106).
> But, that's not all of it, it seems that the making of the 770 has

> So, indeed, Nokia has been funding several Open Source projects for the

This is good news. OTOH sharp zauruses have been here for quite long
time, and failed to make this kind of publicity.
