Looking for a Nokia smartphone with brand new Symbian^3 operating system, 12-Megapixel camera and video that will support 720p recording? You'll be wanting to join the Nokia N87 queue, which suddenly started forming outside the Mobile World Congress centre. That's right, it looks like the first killer Nokia 12MP camera phone is on the way. Join us after the jump for the full story...

With Mobile World Congress just around the corner we were wondering when the Nokia rumours would start to land. We've seen what is supposed to be the Nokia C5 and Nokia C6 and now we have the re-emergence of the Nokia N87, better known as the first Nokia 12-Megapixel camera.

It seems the guys over had Tom's hardware have got their hands on a little insider information and can spill the beans on the Nokia N97. Aside from the 12-Megapixel snapper we can look forward to 3.5-inch capacitive touchscreen, which will be perfect for the super new Symbian^3 operating system. What's more it'll also come rocking multi-touch.

The Nokia N87 looks like it also has video on its mind as it's expected to come with full 720p/30-fps video recording which you can bounce to your Nokia Booklet 3G with ease thanks to the HDMI port onboard. The Booklet also happens to have a resolution of 720p so you'll be able to watch what you've recorded full-screen with no resize issues.

Mobile World Congress starts on Monday, so we don't have too long to wait to see if this rumour is true. What do you think, are we likely to see this handset in the flesh with the new OS working or will it just be an announcement? Let us know what you think in the Comments below.
