Nokia plans to <A HREF="http://www.infoworld.com/article/07/09/27/Nokia-adding-WiMax-support-to-products_1.html">add WiMax connectivity to its N-series Internet tablet</A> next year, the company said Wednesday. WiMax is a wide-area networking technology that offers faster download speeds than 3G (third-generation) mobile networks and has a wider range than Wi-Fi. Adding WiMax support to the Internet tablets will allow users to surf the Web or make calls using Skype away from Wi-Fi hotspots.
Nokia's current Internet tablet, the N800, has a wide screen display with a resolution of 800 pixels by 480 pixels. The device comes with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 2.0. The N800 does include support for cellular networks, although Bluetooth can be used to connect with a cellular phone.
