Yesterday's leaked image of a
purported Nokia tablet device seems to have been more informative than we initially believed it to be. An eagle-eyed forum member over on
mobile-review has spotted the similarity between it and a reference platform for
ST-Ericsson's U8500 system-on-chip. Last we heard, that little powerhouse was running
a pair of 1.2GHz ARM Cortex-A9 cores, so excuse us if we find the prospect of it driving Nokia's next flagship a rather exciting one. You can see video of the reference device in question after the break -- it ends on the delicious and unequivocal assertion from the ST-Ericsson rep that Nokia has signed up to deliver the U8500 in an upcoming device. Bear in mind, however, that the video is from November of last year and we still don't know for sure that the Nokia slate above is its MeeGo progenitor or just a prototype. Either way, the U8500 is expected in smartphones at some point in the first half of this year, which kind of fits Nokia's roadmap, no?
