The event is to be held in Moscow, Russia, rumors are we will be seeing a Nokia Windows RT Tablet that leaked a few days ago. This rumored tab is said to be running on a Snapdragon 800 2.1GHz Quad Core processor, 10.1 inch Full HD display, 32GB internal memory along with USB and HDMI ports.

A detachable keyboard like that of the Microsoft Surface will also be included with the package which might also carry a battery pack. The hint from the above image is the lock screen pics for Windows Desktop also have a picture of piano in it.

So now its a wait and watch game to see if we get some more leaks confirming the device. It is very interesting to see Nokia releasing a WinRT tablet considering that WinRT hasn’t been much successful in the market, with most of the OEMS doing a backtrack saying WinRT is of no use, partly due to lack of apps and partly due to OEM’s are able to fit a complete Win8 desktop OS in the same configuration. So either this device was planned really long ago or Nokia wants to try their luck or simply they could release a tab with a full Windows 8 rather than RT. Whatever it is we will certainly come to know in few days.
