Nokia N900 Rover is at the FCC

We know Nokia is gearing toward launching the next Internet tablet device which will reportedly be called N900 Rover. However, we haven’t got a clue they’ll be launching it with T-Mobile (of all the carriers in the U.S.). This is not to say T-Mobile is bad, quite the contrary, it’s just that their 3G network sings on non-that-standard 1700 MHz band.

Anyway, the N900 aka Rover has been spotted at the FCC, and will be able to work on three HSPA bands – 850, 1700 and 2100 MHz — meaning roaming with Europe is a go!

Rest of the specs include WiFi, GPS, slide-out QWERTY keyboard, FM transmitter, 1320 mAh battery, and so on. Hopefully, we’ll see this baby released in a month or so. As a big fan of Nokia Internet Tablet devices and Maemo platform, I can’t wait to give Rover a try. ;)

He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.

    Images of the RX-51, as its officially now known, are all over EngadgetMobile as I type this…

    Being that the 1700 MHz band is going to be utilized throughout the entire America’s doesn’t sound so non-standard.

    Check out what Central and South America is doing with it.

    I wouldn’t care what carrier it came on, as long as I can buy one unlocked :)
