Nokia Zseries (stands for Zuper) is supposed to be Nokia's MeeGo tablet series. Originally intended to be released in 2010 and early 2011, the tablets were cancelled for unknown reasons. Only a product name has been revealed from the Ovi Store in November 2010.

The list may also include upcoming devices or others that are previously intended to be a part of the series, but was scrapped or renamed due to Nokia's number-only naming change. These are the tablets included in the series:

  • Nokia Z500 is the sole representative of the series, at least as leaked, and was shown on the Ovi Store in November 2010. It was removed a few days later, leading speculations that the tablet will be postponed. The tablet runs on a native version of the MeeGo operating system, and is packed with an ARM chip. On a Disney film called Tron: Legacy, the tablet was shown being used during a meeting in ENCOM Inc., by one of the movie's characters. However, Eldar Murtazin tweeted that the tablet was to be cancelled due to the falling off of agreements between the carrier's pricing of the device, particularly AT&T. Several demo videos appeared on video-sharing site YouTube, containing details on how the device works and how to use it. Only one picture of the device has been known to exist as of the moment, and was captured inside Nokia's mobile development office by an unknown employee. Patent applications for the said device have been gathered from the FCC files on March 2011, and since then, nothing was heard from Nokia Z500 anymore.

Famous quotes containing the words list of, list and/or devices:

    Love’s boat has been shattered against the life of everyday. You and I are quits, and it’s useless to draw up a list of mutual hurts, sorrows, and pains.
    Vladimir Mayakovsky (1893–1930)

    Thirty—the promise of a decade of loneliness, a thinning list of single men to know, a thinning brief-case of enthusiasm, thinning hair.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    The relationship between mother and professional has not been a partnership in which both work together on behalf of the child, in which the expert helps the mother achieve her own goals for her child. Instead, professionals often behave as if they alone are advocates for the child; as if they are the guardians of the child’s needs; as if the mother left to her own devices will surely damage the child and only the professional can rescue him.
    Elaine Heffner (20th century)
