Now it’s official. The new multimedia tablet device by Nokia, the N810 that I called “N900” in a previous “rumour” post, has just been launched by Nokia yesterday. Engadget has the details.

The GPS is the main new feature introduced, together with the sliding qwerty keyboard. I hope the GPS works faster than that included in my Nokia N95 that is fairly unusable sometimes. The device is priced $479.

Here is the list of features (from Engadget):

• 4.13-nch WVGA (800 x 480), 65k color display as the N800, brightness increased by ~20%
• GPS
• 2GB internal storage (not including memory cards), ships with maps for use with GPS
• Has WiFi (802.11b/g), does not have WiMAX
• Bluetooth (2.0+ EDR) DUNs to capable phones, totally Foleo-like
• 400MHz OMAP 2420 CPU, 128MB RAM, 256MB ROM
• Integrated frontal camera, ambient light sensor, mini USB 2.0, hardware lock switch
• Plays back video: 3GP, AVI, H.263, H.264, MP4, ASF, WMV, MPEG-1/4, Real video; audio: MP3, WMA, AAC, AMR, AWB, M4A, MP2, Real audio, WAV
• Battery life aimed at 4 hours of “typical use” (movies, music, internet access, etc.), 10 hours music only, and up to 2 weeks totally idle time, and 5 days active standby (“improved compared to previous generation devices”)
• Runs Nokia’s Linux Maemo interface

Skype, Gizmo and Google Talk are always there, as in the Nokia N800. As usual, I look forward to trying it soon…
