N920 surfaces ahead of N900 launch

Details of a device rumoured to be the Nokia N920 have turned up online just weeks before the launch of the N900 in the UK.

The report was posted at cnBeta.com (although the pics are credited to NokiaPort.de) and suggests that the N920 will be an altogether slimmer and more streamlined device than the N900.

Details revealed alongside the picture suggests that this will largely be achieved by ditching the sliding-Qwerty in favour of an all-touchscreen approach.

Presumed and rumoured specs include; Wi-Fi, HSPA, A-GPS and microSD support- and whilst there's nothing too revolutionary there, we are hearing that the N920 will be running the Maemo 6 platform.

Some have commented that this suggests that the device will feature a capacitive touchscreen and multitouch implementation throughout, rather than just for specific functions.

The report suggests that the handset should be on track to arrive at the start of 2010, and naturally Nokia is keeping quiet on this one for now.
