Nokia slaps HTC with Windows Phone 8 innovation snub
Nokia has lashed out at HTC over the 8X and 8S, dismissing the new "signature" Windows Phone 8 handsets as rebrands that are lacking in innovation.

"It takes more than matching color to match the innovation of the Lumia 920."

Nokia LTE Everything Everywhere Lumia 920 deal tipped; Apologizes again for PureView goof
Nokia is reportedly planning an exclusive 4G deal with UK carrier Everything Everywhere for the Lumia 920, a potential distraction from its second mea culpa over the faked camera sample goof. The UK exclusive would see Everything Everywhere - including T-Mobile UK and Orange - snap up the Windows Phone 8 device for a November launch, the Financial Times' sources say, echoing Nokia's sole-carrier deal with AT&T in the US on previous handsets. However, the new Lumia is still being overshadowed by Nokia's faking of the initial photography samples, something the company now says will be handled with an internal inquiry.
