Late June for Nokia 5800 Tube?

The summer months are always an exciting time as that’s when Nokia traditionally flexes its technological muscle and tosses a new world-leading handset into the mix. And this season the air is full of the scent of the iPhone-eclipsing 5800 Tube.

Launching in the summer would be the ideal time for Nokia to assert its authority and steal Apple’s thunder with a pre-emptive strike on the upcoming 3G iPhone. Plus, as June 29 is iPhone’s birthday, if the Tube were to launch a day or two before that milestone it would seriously put Apple’s nose out of joint.

The other signs look good, as Nokia often gives six months notice from announcing a new handset to it hitting shelves. So as we’ve know about this one since August 2007 when NokNok ran it first.

We’re digging deeper on this, and will be updating over the coming months, so stay tuned for all your Nokia Tube news right here!
