Wireless carrier T-Mobile is gearing up for the release of Nokia’s Windows Phone-powered Lumia 710, and the device has just emerged in a leaked press photo, although nothing has been officially announced on its arrival.

The phone is expected to become official during an event that Nokia and T-Mobile announced for December 14th, only a few weeks after being spotted at the FCC.

The leaked press photo with it, available courtesy of Pocketnow, shows a white flavor of Lumia 710 on its way to T-Mobile, but it is not accompanied by info on the release date or pricing.

A black version will also land at the carrier, it seems, and both will feature unchanged specs when compared to the International version.

There will be a 3.7-inch screen included into the mix, along with a 1.4GHz CPU, 8GB of internal memory, 5MP camera, and the Windows Phone 7.5 Mango OS.
