We’ve already told you Nokia is working on its own tablet. Now we have more information to add — apparently the Finns want to offer a battery-equipped keyboard cover with its product, making it that much better than Microsoft’s Surface. This special cover will envelop the tablet like a book, while also providing a kickstand when open.
According to The Verge, the forthcoming device will have HDMI and 2 USB ports, 10-hour battery and a 10.1-inch display. Cellular connectivity will also be available in select models, one of which may end-up in AT&T’s offering.
Initially, Nokia will build a small number of the tablets, most likely to test the market, but the plan is to also make a full-blown Windows 8 (rather than Windows RT) device.
Unsurprisingly, the Finnish company declined to comment on rumors and we’ll rather have to wait for Mobile World Congress to get all the details. Stay tuned…

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
