Well, I've specifically talked to the folks heading up the program, and they assured me no gaming-specific devices (I hope that isn't really the case), but there will be phones enhanced for gaming, if that's what you mean. I'd much prefer they revisited the hardware and created a 3rd version done right. Ngage QD was so close.

Indeed, the QD was very close.

I've got a few of the later native S60 games on my N73, and the only thing lacking is a decent keyboard/control layout.

Tomb Raider (legends?), snow boarding and a few others - all excellent graphics, and very playable.

Whilst there aren't any "specific" gaming handsets, some of the current Nokia lineup of S60 devices do have graphics accelerator chips (finally!), which make a massive difference on rendering speed.
