Nokia's leaked MeeGo device resembles dual-core ST-Ericsson U8500 reference platform

It seemed that the Nokia tablet that we saw yesterday is indeed a real product, but it doesn’t seem to be from Nokia, in some way. What’s more, it appears to be a reference platform of a rival. An eagle-eyed forum member over on mobile-review has spotted the similarity between it and a reference platform for ST-Ericsson’s U8500 system-on-chip.

A short googling shows that the device is powered by a pair of 1.2GHz ARM Cortex-A9 cores. But the video shows that there’s a possibility of Nokia signing a partnership with ST-Ericsson and will be delivering that tablet as an upcoming product, though the video is a few months old, so anything can happen within the upcoming few months.
