Phone, but I swear when I first saw it, I thought I was looking at a different bezel for the N810.

new phone... Or not even that looking at the comments.

A tablet would hopefully have a 4+ inch screen like the current ones.

Your link has been abbreviated to 'n...900-leaks-out'. Got me very excited till I clicked it...

...but that is just wrong, Mr. Rat, and you know it!!

Is it smaller? (couldn't be 'cause 800px is mighty tight as it is and Maemo will stay there)
or is it bigger? (slightly more plausible but almost certainly would require a size increase)

So you say the screen of the N900 non-internet-tablet
is NOT going to be the current 4 inch size?

why don't you just make it easy and tell us all you know,
OK??

It's a phone, it's got the XpressMusic branding on it which means a mid-price media-oriented phone.

Plus the numbering is more in line with the phone numbering than tablet numbering: 5900 would be a step up from the current 5800 phone.

Nokia has apparently ordered an enormous number of capacitive touchscreens, I bet they're for this device (assuming it isn't a fake).

Needing a good phone for when I go to college this summer, its going to be the Pre, iPhone2, next Android, or the N900 (google voice for SMS and SIP). Only really compelling reasons to stick with the nokia is its probable lower monthly rate (data only is cheaper than data+voice+text right?) and larger screen size. I really hope the screen does not become smaller...
