if Nokia were determined to keep it secret, they might get a stooge to buy these units and to determine who the seller is and how they got hold of them - the route to market might not have been wholly legitimate.

Do keep in mind that even this seller isn't scamming, and you somehow do get a legitimate, working RX-51 prototype device from him/her, the device cause you trouble down the line. The prototypes of previous tablets have rejected publicly released firmware images. SSUs will probably install fine, but should you ever need to reflash, doing so may be difficult or impossible.

@sjgadsby: thanks, you're right.
Actually i just asked a friend of mine who works at nokia (no, nothing that exciting.. she's in accounting) looking for leads for more RX-51 *G* she told me she knew a guy who lost a prototype when his car got stolen, and the guy got sacked all the same. So I don't think this leak was from a (sane) nokia employee.
@wert613: we just need one more if you'd be curly =P

I go camping for a couple of weeks (my N800 was great on the road, BTW), and I come back to find pretty pictures all over the forums...
So pretty....

Someone had mentioned earlier in this thread they did not see a stylus in the box. It looks like it is built into the phone.

If that's really a stylus, that's a very strange place to put it. How are you supposed to take it in or out when the device is standing on the stand? But don't get me wrong, a stylus slot in the least convenient place is infinitely better than none at all.
