The rumor mill has been sending a lot of mixed messages about the purported upcoming Nokia tablet, dubbed Sirius. We have seen it so far in leaked pictures showcasing its reddish design and getting its Bluetooth certification as well

The original plan consisted of Nokia launching the tablet alongside rumored Lumia 1520 phablet somewhere around the end of September. But all those plans changed and the Finnish company had to reschedule the event.

Paradoxically, another batch of recent rumors claimed that Microsoft might be having Nokia cancel out completely their Sirius tablet.

Hopefully, this is not the case anymore. A post showed up on the company's official Twitter featuring a picture of two guys skating in the sand with the mention “At Nokia, we never stop innovating. More to share on October 22.”

So the Nokia event has been apparently pushed to October 22. Other sources seem to agree with the information.

Now @Evleaks twitted that the Nokia Sirius was rolling out alongside the Nokia Phablet (nicknamed Bandit) next month in Abu Dhabi. We certainly hope this will become reality.
