Nokia Symbian^3 Rumos

During a recent Nokia event in China a sneak look at what appears to be a revamped Symbian was leaked. It looks like a Nokia N8 with a different homescreen layout.

You can see a dedicated status bar, which is different than the current one on Symbian^3. It looks stationary and will probably stay on the screen in most occasions. Also the bottom of the homescreen is changed.

We'll keep you guys posted in case new information surfaces.
