Yesterday we talked about the concept of the future iPod as a mini computer or laptop, today we spot this report in the Seattle Times about Nokia’s mini-computer ambitions. According to the Times, staff at Nokia’s HQ in Finland are not allowed to call their products phones – they are multimedia computers:

The decree reveals Nokia’s vision of the cellphone future, one in which one device will manage your information, communication and entertainment needs — a single remote control of sorts for your electronic life.
