We hear at 3G.co.uk have no idea where http://mobile.it168.com/  source their phone scoops from but they usually prove to be reliable and get pretty close to the action.

This time they have a brief specification and actual photos of the new Nokia N Series N8 ( was N98 but now that Nokia have streamlined their numbering system for phones it becomes the Nokia 8-00 ).

Looking at the translated page link below the Nokia N8 has a Symbian^3 operating system, 12-Megapixel camera with Xenon flash and the usual Carl Zeiss optics, 3.5-inch capacitive touchscreen and supports HDMI high-definition video output ( via HDMI port ).

That’s about it for the moment but you can read the full Nokia N98 ( Nokia N8 ) article from it168 here.
