Nokia 710 spotted over at Nokia Developer

My Nokia Blog reports that a Nokia 710 was spotted over at Nokia Developer earlier today. The phone sports specifications which are very similar to those suggested for Mango devices. Interestingly the OS is named as Maemo Internet Tablet 2008 but that is obviously meant to cover up the presence of Windows Phone 7 on the hardware.

Specifications include :

• 1.4GHz Cortex A8
• 3.7″, 800×480  Clear Black TFT

• 28mm wide angle  5MP camera
• 720p, 30FPS
• 8GB Internal memory
• 512mb RAM
• Browser BL-5B 3.7V 820mAh (820mAh) – 400 hours standby (more than iPhone 4S), 5H 3G browsing, 7H GSM talk time. MicroSIM.

Some possible discrepancies in there as WP7 devices have inherently run on Qualcomm chipsets. With Nokia World right around the corner , we should be hearing more about the same.

Toshiba announces thinnest Android tablet AT200 at IFA

Many devices are being launched at the IFA, we just saw a parade of new Samsung devices, now it is the time for Toshiba to reveal their Android Honeycomb running tablet AT200. At 7.7 mm thin, this is the thinnest tablet running Android, thinner than Samsung’s Galaxy Tab by 1 mm.

Toshiba AT200 sports a 1.2 GHz dual core processor (TI Omap 4430), which is the same processor used in Droid 3, with 1 GB of RAM and a 10.1″ display. This will be one of the few non – Tegra 2 devices running Honeycomb, so the performance of this device is yet to be seen. We think this new device from Toshiba will be better and faster then it’s the older version, AT100 which was running on a dual core 1 GHz Tegra 2 processor.

From the look of this device it looks like it has a metallic back which may increase the weight, but it should not be much as the device is really thin. We look forward on checking out how well Honeycomb works on TI chipsets.
