BTW, I think Foxconn is involved in most tablets (to one extent or another). There's almost no tablet you could buy where you wouldn't be paying Foxconn something.

Nokia was a supplier to Foxconn...just like Qualcomm, Samsung and Foxconn are suppliers to Apple.
This is Nokia renting out their name and performing contract design. This is NOT a Nokia product. Nokia isn't going to stand behind it. Nokia has nothing to do with the warranty. Nokia has nothing to do with whether it's manufactured with quality. Nokia has nothing to do with software compatibility, regular OS updates.
Buy this product and you are dealing solely with Foxconn. Foxconn makes a lot of people's products, including Apple's iPhone. There is no reason to think this won't be a quality product. But this is Foxconn. Not Nokia.
