Nokia is reportedly seeing strong market demand for its Booklet 3G mini-notebook, with Compal Electronics, the manufacturing partner, working overtime to satisfy demand, according to a Chinese-language Economic Daily News (EDN) report. The report added that market rumors are circulating that Nokia will take advantage of its current netbook momentum by releasing a new version in 2010.
Compal 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.
Nokia announced its first netbook, the Booklet 3G mini-notebook, in August 2009. The device is powered by Intel's Atom processor, adopts a 10-inch display, weighs 1.25kg and supports both 3G/HSPA and Wi-Fi connectivity.
