Nokia's Lumia Tablet (aka - 2520 , Sirius, RX114) goes through the FCC

Nokia‘s much-rumored tablet has appeared at the FCC undergoing LTE testing, with the Finnish company almost completely squeezing out references to the form factor of what’s expected to be a Windows RT based machine. Listed as the Nokia RX-114, the device makes no mention of its design until the final page, when it’s outed as a tablet. It’s expected to be among a rumored six new devices to be shown off for the first time on October 22nd

Details on the slate, at least from this FCC filing, are unclear. However, the agency has put its wireless radios through the usual test processes, confirming which types of cellular connectivity – and which bands are supported
– are present.

It’s a reasonably full house, too, with LTE bands 2, 4, 5, 13, and 17 all included, making for 4G compatibility with both Verizon and AT&T’s networks, not to mention T-Mobile USA. There’s also HSPA+ and GSM/EDGE for areas without LTE service.

Untested, of course, are the other hardware specifications, though recent leaks have given us something to expect on that front, too. The Nokia RX-114 is said to run Windows RT on Qualcomm’s quadcore Snapdragon 800 processor, complete with Adreno 330 graphics.

That’s the word from previous leaked benchmarks, which also used the codename RX-114 for the tablet. Other testing results, for Bluetooth 4.0 compatibility, tipped a second name, the Nokia RM-114; earlier leaks have dubbed the device “Sirius”.

Nokia's Lumia tablet may be unveiled on the 22nd of October

Nokia’s tablet will be one of the few to use Windows RT, which Microsoft has struggled to make appealing for OEMs after the underwhelming sales performance of the original Surface, and ongoing confusion among consumers as to the differences and similarities between RT and full Windows 8. Last week Microsoft revealed the successor to the Surface, the Surface 2, running NVIDIA’s latest Tegra 4 chipset.(SlashGear)

HTC One to sell as TD 101 at China Mobile

HTC decided to invest in such a brand by launching the One series of smartphones last year, although the company was not able to impose its own product names to certain carriers. Then, just a few days ago, the company launched the HTC One, which is going to be the company’s only One-branded handset this year, a make-or-break kind of project for the Taiwanese Android maker that’s still having a tough time fighting against the competition, especially Samsung. We were under the impression that HTC will further invest in its One brand and not budge to carrier demands anymore when it comes to changing the name of the product – in the U.S., AT&T, Sprint and T-Mobile are going to sell it as the HTC One. But it looks like things aren’t necessarily so, and no, it’s not Verizon that’s going to get its way selling the One as the Droid DNA Plus, as it was recently rumored. We’re looking at China Mobile this time around, which has announced the HTC One as the HTC TD 101. That’s certa
