That sounds exactly like the kind of thing that Nokia would invite all the UK bloggers to. See earlier. Nokia is a big company, fixating on every single upcoming event they're involved in and saying "is this it?!" will get you breathless and disappointed. Similar logic can be applied to the June 21st "Nokia Connections" event: "an update on the company’s partnership with Microsoft, and the resulting new ecosystem" "What will the new Ecosystem mean for Nokia and what are the global plans for developers and apps?"

In fact, the whole tone of the agenda suggests that Windows Phone may be sooner than we were expecting :-(
