Nokia might announce two Windows Phone 8 handsets on September 5
And the rumor mill is at it again bringing spicy bits of speculation surrounding the release of the first Windows Phone 8 handsets by Nokia. According to a source from the far east, the Finnish manufacturer will unveil not one, but two smartphones running WP8. Supposedly, that will happen on September 5, which is when Microsoft is also expected to release more details regarding the development of Windows Phone 8.
Although the credibility of the source can be questioned, the rumor might actually be on the right track. After all, Nokia World kicks off on September 5, and would there be a better opportunity for the company to present us with its first Windows Phone 8 devices? Besides, we know that Nokia has a surprise in stock for September 7, which could be the market availability of the WP8 smartphones in question. On the other hand, it is said that Windows Phone 8 devices might not debut until November of this year, although that does not necessarily mean that the handsets won't be unveiled a couple of months in advance.
But as you should with any rumor, take all of the above information with a healthy dose of disbelief, especially since the source, WPDang, has no solid evidence to back up its claims with. Just arm yourselves with patience for now, folks, and don't get too excited until an official announcement comes from either Nokia or Microsoft.
