Are the people behind Canola working for Nokia (NYSE: NOK) yet? They honestly should.
Calling the N800 an Internet Tablet isn’t going to turn a lot of heads. Call it a portable media player with the best in class web browser will have a lot more people paying attention.
They don’t actually work for Nokia, as they are not employees pro forma. Nokia Technology Institute is a Nokia-funded research center, but it is an independent institution.
I am pretty sure they do actually work for Nokia.
