Nokia open sourcing their Internet Tablet OS brand, design their logo!

Are you familiar with the Nokia Internet Tablet? The few of you with your hands still up in the air, are you aware that the OS it runs is called Maemo? Well you're in for a treat, Nokia wants to update the logo and instead of hiring some fresh out of college Northern European designer who will probably design the furniture that goes into the minuscule studio apartment you're forced to live in after your girlfriend kicks you out due to your dangerous mobile phone purchasing habits, they're looking for the community for inspiration!

Good PR move, hit this link for the details. You have until August, and if you win you get to go to Germany for the first Maemo Summit. Have yet to decide if I want to go, I don't have any close contacts with the Maemo team. Guess it is time to sit with those smelly Linux geeks on the opposite side of the cafeteria; just kidding <3!
