Ok, this one's odd. In fact, we didn't believe the images until a video just surfaced showing Nokia CEO, Stephen Elop, foolishly asking a crowd of people to "put away their cameras" for the unveiling of something "super confidential," codenamed "Sea Ray." Naturally, a few people ignored the plea for "no pictures please" and, indeed, someone leaked what appears to be a Nokia-produced video of the unveiling to the blogosphere. What is it? Why, it's Nokia's first Windows Phone. While it looks nearly identical to the just announced N9, the different LED placement on the back (in line with the same 8 megapixel Carl Zeiss lens) confirms it's a new device as does the additional hardware button (for shutter release, we presume) along the side.
And the fact that it's running Windows Phone 7 Mango seals the deal. See a few more shots and the full uncut video (and relevant snippet) after the break.

Yeah, some "super spy" in the audience "secretly" "leaked" his professional 2-source (tripod-mounted, and over-the-projector) shot video. "Lucky" for ALL of us such stealthy individuals are around to get us advanced details on something SOOOO important. Who needs wikileaks?

Windows wtf? They held too long on the failOS Symbian, would of thought they would dive into Android by now. Is Windows mobile market share even that big to bother investing in?

Yeah, I hate the latest version of Mindows. Besides being a pile-o-shite, I have this image of Steve Ballmer trying to sell it to me, which kinda exacerbates the whole marketing exercise. I used to be a long time Nokia advocate, but now (having also tried Android), I just can't put down my jail broken iP4 [sorry ]
