Nokia to launch Windows RT tablet in Sept, pictures leaked


Microsoft has lost nearly $900 million on Surface RT tablets but that doesn’t seem to have deterred Nokia from launching its tablet with Windows RT operating system. (Windows RT is a version of Windows 8 for mobiles devices which use ARM architecture.)
According to new leaked photos, Nokia is working on its own Windows RT tablet which could be launched in September. Chinese Web-forum Digiwo which put out pictures of a bright pink-red tablet. A green-blue coloured tablet is also likely to be launched, says the report.
In terms of specs, Nokia’s tablet could come with a 2.15 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor, a 10.1 inch screen with 1080p resolution, 32GB space, detachable keyboard and Micro HDMI & USB 3.0 port.
The report says that the launch is likely to take place at special launch event in New York in September.
While Nokia might be betting on this new Windows RT device to break into tablet pc market, analysts and tech watchers have greeted the news with disdain.
Informa Telecoms & Media analyst Malik Saadi, told PCWorld, “First of all the OS has been a flop, there is no doubt about that. So the choice to go with Windows RT is bizarre.”
The colours and size of the device also make it look rather gaudy. A pink-red 10-inch tablet might not be something that people would like to carry around.

MS Dhoni’s return catch was big moment in the match: Kane Williamson New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson lauded his bowlers for drying up the runs during India’s chase in the second ODI here, terming Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s brilliant return catch by Tim Southee as a “big moment” in the match. When asked about how the bowlers and fielders responded while defending a low total, Williamson said: “Someone like MS Dhoni, he can finish matches when he is allowed to play his shots. He is the best in the world. That catch was big for us.” Williamson was happy with the manner his bowlers responded on a tricky surface and also gave an insight to how some adjustments led to the Indian skipper playing 37 dot balls. “On this kind of a surface (Kotla), scrapping was important.
