Two new Nokia smartphones show up in TOI app stats

Nokia is yet to launch the Lumia 800 and 710 handsets in India, but rumours of their next flagship handset, the Nokia Lumia 900 are already popping up. This is not the first time we have heard about the Lumia 900, back in mid-November a promo video popped up displaying Nokia’s next flagship handset. Shortly after the video was released, it had gone private, which indicates that it definitely may have been true. Now according to a report by WMPoweruser, the smartphone has surfaced again, this time in the statistics of a Windows Phone app of the Times of India.
