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
Did he jump out of the building after they found out? If not, how does Nokia think they can rival Apple?
capacitive, nope, unless the fremantle code have been lying all this time...
OK, got an update:

I'd be surprised if he got it wrong he's very techie. But he might have.
If it is resistive, it's even worse than i thought
Since the RX-51 seems to have a stylus, that has to confirm resistive right? Or can a stylus still work on a capacitive screen? If it can, maybe there's still hope for capacitive - perhaps the source code is intentionally designed to throw the competition off the scent...

He might have been tricked by two-touch in the interface.
"Apart from 32GB info, another whould be a 3D task switcher/manager (he compared it with live preview in Windows 7) and that it runs incredibly smooth compared to anything on market at moment (3D acceleration of UI, and that was something we already knew)! For moment that`s all! He wasnt sure anyway about stylus (can`t remember about it) and the QWERTY keypad is much better designed than the one in N97 (wich is a good thing)!"

Wow a lot of rumours and excitement over there.... i just thought only we maemo.org guys were the ones interested in this.... Maemo 5 seems to be going places. I am excited
