Nokia squares up to Apple

Much buzz on the tubes right now about the, er, Tube. This would be the Nokia 5800, Espoo's first touchscreen phone (yes, I know, I shook my head in disbelief at that for a moment too, but it's true).

Although it's really a prototype, it's being touted by the blogerati as an iPhone-killer... isn't anything with a big touchscreen these days? Anyways...

TV-out socket. Haptic blah-blahs. Wi-Fi. HSDPA. A decent camera (probably). A proper 3.5mm headphone socket. All of these come with the "allegedly" proviso, because Nokia won't talk about it on the record (but that's their standard line for anything they haven't officially launched yet).
