Not sure about the Tablets, but with Phones Nokia tend to announce things an absolute age before you can actually buy one.

Based on that, it could be a fair while before you see a new one.

Main thing I'm looking for (putting aside the phone PIM/integration thing) is that they address the video playback issue.

Don't think I'd consider upgrading till it could playback native files at a decent speed without having to mess about downsizing them.
