Nokia and Verizon could launch it early next month, or at the beginning of March

One of the Windows Phone 8 smartphones that has been long expected to make an official appearance on the market is the Nokia Lumia Icon, which should be available in the United States exclusively through Verizon.

The smartphone has already made an appearance on the wireless carrier’s website, with its official page removed twice from there, but Nokia hasn’t formally introduced it as of now.

However, a new leak coming from Twitter user @evleaks appears to suggest that February 5 would be the lucky day for enthusiasts. If not, they will have to wait one more month before it arrives at the operator.

Said user has posted a screenshot of Nokia Lumia Icon’s user guide, with the caption, “So, February 5th or March 5th?” thus suggesting that either of the two dates could be the phone’s official launch day. Hopefully, the handset will be announced sooner rather than later.
