From the post:

Not. Look at that item at the top center: a teleconference system. This may have been taken inside Nokia or some partner. Doubt it was retail. Someone slap that blogger.

Looks like what there calling the n97 mini has a very similar keyboard layout as the pics from the auctioned rx-51.

It's blurry but the key counts come out the same and I think I can make out arrow keys on the far right side.




Yeah, my first post as a long time lurker........

Phone, phone, phone, another phone, yeah that one's ugly, another ugly phone, phone....eh, nothing to see here. Now if there was a tablet in there, I'd be interested.

Anyone download the pics before they removed them?

and if those are taken down I decided to save it rather than relying on my unreliable cache. I can't believe engadget would take something down (again), do I need to start mirroring all their content?

I think mirroring will become the standard these days. Too darned many companies and people getting uber protective of their stuff.

I don't blame a single one of them. Competition is fierce, and certain leaks can undermine product viability.

When the N800 was leaked, it made my job extremely difficult. I understand the desire to see these seductive photos, but I also understand the desire to have them pulled.

I would almost think that the hype would do the product good. Then again, it gives the competition time to see what you're offering and undermine you before you can go public with the product.
