Leaked or Photoshop work?

After the live pictures the Nokia E90 handset got yesterday some new photo is working its way out to the surface of the web.

The attached picture shows how the exterior of the E90 Communicator might look like and, although most of the people seem to have taken it for granted and applied it the "press photo" stamp, I'm not very sure of its nature yet.

The person which made it publicly available, a member of the mobile-review.com forum named "deuxani", is the same one that released a "preview" photo of the N95 just before the official release.

And, that time also, due to the extreme similarity nobody knew if that was the photo of the real thing or some super energized work of a real good Photoshop artist.

I must say the picture looks pretty good and, from the looks of it, the E90 is going to get the classic Communicator design with some silver edge spices and a digital camera that might just get the device banned into the business world.

I'm sure you know that most companies have put a ban on camera enabled cellphones and that means the E90 is going to get kicked out of the very market it targets. We're just going to see what happens after the device gets released.

For the ones that never had the chance to read the yesterday's article about the E90 this is what its intermediary, based on the rumors spec sheet looks like. The tri-band GSM Nokia handset has an external screen working at a resolution of 240x320 pixels and an internal one with a 800x352 pixels resolution, both having 16 million colors, provides support for EDGE, HSPDA and Wi-Fi technologies, the installed applications can run on either screens (you'll be able to launch a program on the outside screen and then continue running it on the inside one taking full advantage of the super sized resolution), a 3.2 megapixel digital camera, a secondary VGA one for video calls, a microSD memory expansion card slot and a Series 60 3rd edition operating system.

The most important things about this phone, the release date and the price tag, aren't yet known but everybody's got a pretty strong feeling we're going to hear and see more of it during the 3GSM exposition in Barcelona; so sit tight and wait for updates.
