Nokia already preparing its first Windows 8 tablet?

Nokia’s first Windows 8 tablet is allegedly already in the works as the Russian head office of the company has received documents about the upcoming tablet, according to Russian tech blogger and Nokia insider Eldar Murtazin.

This strongly hints that the tablet is either already in the works, or the company is about to start developing it, but what’s interesting is that Murtazin confirms that Nokia won’t get any kind of exclusivity with Windows 8. Nothing too surprising as Microsoft has previously said that its platform will remain neutral to phone makers, but this definitely helps illuminate the future Windows 8 landscape.

“Nokia russian hq received yesterday docs about first win8 tablet from company. Funny fact that in paper mentions - Nokia wont be unique :-)” Murtazin’s exact tweet reads.

We expect more details about the Nokia Windows 8 tablet to surface soon, given that Murtazin was able to get the inside scoop about the device so early. Currently, though, there’s nothing factual to cling to - just one dreamy concept of a Lumia-like tablet. Check it out, and stay tuned for more information in the near future.

I hope Nokia makes them out of the poly carbonate material the Nokia 800/900 smart Phones are made out of because they can be sold in colors like blue, Maroon, red, brown, grey or even Pink and yellow or orange most tablets today are black Ipad look alikes

I agree with you 100%! It would be awesome if there were different color tablets! It would be awesome!

Yeah. If it were sold in plain black or white Apple would sue Nokia for the color. Now they cannot.

PhoneArena should not longer trust this russian blogger, he said so many unbelievable nonsense lately.
