Nokia rumored to be working on a Windows RT tablet

A Concept Nokia TabletIf Microsoft's Surface RT tablet does not float your boat, maybe Nokia's supposed take on the 10-inch Windows RT space might convert you. A new rumour suggests that Nokia's got a Windows RT tablet in the works and that it will bring a number of innovative features such as extra battery life from the keyboard cover and USB ports that serve as a kickstand. Nokia's not coonfirmed or denied the existence of such a device but we're weeks away from CES where we could likely get our first glimpse of what could be the most compelling reason to get into Windows RT. I think it would be awesome to see a tablet with the build and quality we've seen on the recent Lumia devices.
