Nokia N9 MeeGo-based Smartphone Appears in Leaked Images

The first unofficial pictures of the Nokia N9 have appeared. This device is apparently going to be the replacement for the N900, and the first phone based on MeeGo, an operating system still in development by Intel and Nokia.

The images show that the N9 is going to have a landscape-oriented keyboard and a slide-and-tilt display.

Aside from these sparse details, little is known about this upcoming model.

Earlier this year, Nokia and Intel announced that they are combining their Linux-based operating systems. Nokia's Maemo is currently available on the N900, while and Intel's Moblin was created for netbooks and tablets.

The resulting operating system, dubbed MeeGo, will run on a range of mobile computers.

A high-level Nokia executive promised recently that his company's first MeeGo-based device would be available before the end of this year.
