Rumors are abound that Nokia<\/a> may be looking to release a new version of its Booklet 3G<\/a> netbook sometime next year.<\/p>\n

I use the term \u201crumors\u201d loosely as the basic idea seems to be that Compal Electronics, the company that manufactures the current Booklet 3G, is \u201cworking overtime to satisfy demand,\u201d according to DigiTimes<\/a> and, therefore, \u201cmarket rumors are circulating that Nokia will take advantage of its current netbook momentum by releasing a new version in 2010.\u201d<\/p>\n

Yes, that does indeed sound plausible — why not? A computer product released in 2009 that sells well would probably see some sort of update in 2010. And as chipsets get smaller and faster, it\u2019d be silly for Nokia to just sit on a single Booklet offering.<\/p>\n

Now information about when<\/em> a new model would be released might be more helpful. If Nokia\u2019s going to push one out on January 1st or something, it might be a good idea to hold off on buying the current Booklet 3G. From the sounds of it, though, it doesn\u2019t seem like we\u2019re anywhere close to a situation like that:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cCompal is expected to have a good chance of landing the orders, according to the report. However, no special insight was provided as to why Compal will receive the orders except for the fact that the Taiwan-based notebook maker is currently Nokia’s netbook manufacturing partner.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

So take this news with a grain of salt. If the current Booklet 3G is successful, though, it\u2019d be odd if Nokia didn\u2019t update the line sometime next year.<\/p>\n
