More dredging results. This article from April suggests that we might just need to wait a bit longer to get our hearts' desire:

One of the new models to be rolled out over the next 12 months has a 4.2-inch touchscreen and a "hidden slide-out keyboard," and is considered a mobile Internet device or tablet. The device is targeted for introduction in the fourth quarter before Christmas.
I don't think it's the only tablet device though - there seems to be little reason to wait till Q4 for the first release of a tablet, now that Maemo 5 is entering beta testing soon-ish...
In a follow-up post, chlettn points to Nokia World 2009 (September 2-3) as the likely unveiling / announcement date for these devices.
