Looking at today's blogpost at Jolla Blog, can anyone identify the third device on this picture?

Here's just the cropped image.

It could be some Nexus device for all I know, but why would it be there next to Jolla and Jolla Tablet?
I seems way too big, though, so I'm not sure if I want it to be the next device.

What on earth would N9 do between Jolla Tablet and Jolla, when SailfishOS for N9 is not fully functional and never will be?? 
Jolla Tablet is on the left, Jolla (1) is definitely the one in the middle (dimension comparisons with the tablet fit exactly). The question is what's the device on the right side.
Some math (very very rough - what else can you get from a tiny image
):Code:
[Name] [Device height (pic)] [Screen height (pic)] Jolla Tablet 203mm (56px) ~160mm (42px) Jolla 131mm (36px) ~100mm (27px) ??? ~145mm (40px) ~120mm (33px) [Name] [Device width (pic)] [Screen width (pic)] Jolla Tablet 137mm ~120mm Jolla 68mm ~56mm ??? ~73mm (20px) ~62mm (17px) [Name] [Screen size] [Screen ratio] Jolla Tablet 7.85" 4:3 Jolla 4.5" ~1.8:1 ??? ~5.3" ~1.9:1

a putative Jolla2 is now far enough into the future that i really do expect it to arrive with TypeC USB. given that we are looking at Sept 15 at the earliest i will be disappointed if it is sporting microUSB when it is announced.

Yet another connector? Incomparible with everything I have in my arsenal? No, thanks.

What are licensing costs like for Type-C, are they high, Intel part of the working group?
Most spec'n lately, has been pointing to Jolla most likely being in bed in bed with Intel, so would they be helping them out?

otherwise you'd still be banging out COBOL on your Sparc mainframe.
besides which, it is the one port to rule them all:
10gb/sec data
100W power
displayport over USB
PCIe over USB
it'll rock your world!

re licensing fees, i don't believe there are any. from wiki:
"A vendor ID is necessary for obtaining a certification of compliance from the USB-IF. The USB-IF is responsible for issuing USB vendor IDs to product manufacturers. The cost for issuing this number is US$5,000. Additionally, the use of a trademarked USB logo to identify certified devices requires license fee of US$3,500 for a 2-year term.[1] Some microcontroller manufacturers offer a free or low cost sublicense of their vendor ID for development/testing and limited production (generally under 10,000 units). Vendors offering this free service include:"
dell seem quite happy about the prospect of cherry trail (14nm - X5/X7) atom products being able to support type C USB:

this is one reason why I questioned a few weeks back whether Jolla support would be limited to the cheaper Intel bay trail SoC (22nm - X3):
