Come on, you didn’t think Nokia’s only response to the G1, iPhone, and Storm would be the 5800 XpressMusic, did you? Word on the ground at this week’s Nokia World conference is that Espoo is planning a major announcement tomorrow — and hey, is that a countdown timer to the keynote that just went live on Nokia’s site? engaging attention. Our pal and yours Robert Scoble says that Nokia execs are running around bragging that “the Internet” is totally in the dark on this one, and that only a small number of people within the company have seen the new device. That’s certainly got our ears perked up — we’re guessing this is something a little more major than that hinted-at touch Communicator. We’ll let you know right away if you want to stay up with us — the contest is scheduled for 3:15AM EST.

A tradeshow to call its own, Nokia World kicks off this week in Barcelona — and while it’s expected to mostly be a way for developers to get out of their windowless offices for a couple minutes and connect with like-minded folks, a countdown timer has appeared on Nokia’s European and Middle Eastern / African sites that suggests something bigger is afoot. New handsets, accessories, or initiatives? We’re hoping for the first choice there — because you know, Nokia, we haven’t seen any Nseries devices running S60 5.0 yet. Hint, hint.
