First Nokia Windows Phones by Christmas, + Nokia 800 for Airtel India?

I thought I’d roll these Windows Phone posts into one.


First up. NWP by Christmas


According to Danish site, mobilsiden.dk, Nokia’s first Windows Phone will be available before Christmas. I’m not sure if they’re quoting something new that Stephen Elop has said or possibly something reported time and time before. Yes, first batch is being announced this month, with at least two available this year in certain countries.


Secondly, NWP Nokia 800 airtel ad

The we were sent a scan of a possibly Nokia 800 pamphlet for Airtel, India. The source wants to remain anonymous. This was scanned very quickly apparently. Maybe no cameras allowed there or maybe it’s a photoshop, printed and scanned? I don’t know. I’m a little bit suspicious, particularly as the screenshot used isn’t even Mango. It’s a very old Windows 7 screen. It’s like they took some already available Nokia 800 shots, switched this screenshot, added some text and airtel logo, printed and scanned it in. If not, poor, very poor quality control in regards to the screenshot.


Now as for availability of this, I’m not sure. It is not connected to the “by Christmas” tag as that is for a select countries, of which, at least 6 are in Europe. US may have to wait for 2012 when Nokia Ace or whatever high end NWP appears.
