A weird looking Nokia "game phone" with a square screen ... N-Gage 2

It's being discussed on the forums of Howard; someone has grabbed an illicit piccy of a forthcoming Nokia game phone. It's got the N-Gage logo on it, but it looks a bit bigger.

The next generation N-Gage?
According to forum member Phoenix81 who claims to have a friend working for Nokia, it's actually smaller than the N-Gage. That makes the hand in the picture pretty small. And, he says, it's due for launch "in a month or two."

The big change, apparently, is in the position you hold it in when using it as a phone (instead of as a games playing multi-player toy) which is "more natural."
