The latest news on the Web unveiled two new great-looking Nokia touchscreen phones that have leaked into the wild. The two devices have been spotted in a video on the Nokia N97 design concept, and although they make only a brief appearance in the video, some rumors regarding them already started to float around.

Considering the exterior design of the new handsets, they are expected to be added to the Finnish mobile phone maker's portfolio of touchscreen featured devices. In addition, a smartphone roadmap that surfaced last year could point towards the fact that one of the handsets might be Ivalo, a phone that could succeed the Nokia N97.

The newly spotted device should include a 3.5-inch wide touchscreen, as well as 32GB of internal memory, aGPS, and FM transmitter and receiver, as well as a 5-megapixel camera and TV-out. More connectivity would be available via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi functionality.

The second handset featured in the video could prove to be Madeleine, which is expected to come to the market as a mid-range QWERTY-enabled touch mobile phone. The handset should also feature Wi-Fi and GPS connectivity, as well as FM radio, while sporting a 3.2-megapixel camera and N-Gage support with dedicated gaming keys.

As you can see in the video, Madeline features almost the same design as the N97. The handset comes with a sliding QWERTY keyboard and tilting screen, only that it has the D-pad moved to the right.

The Finnish giant phone maker hasn't unveiled any official word on the two handsets. For what it's worth, we might hear some details on the company's plans at the upcoming Mobile World Congress next week in Barcelona, Spain. Until then, take a look at the video below to see the new devices.
