Chances of Nokia announcing new hardware at GamesCom? "No dice."

Yesterday the image above from the::unwired began circling around the 'net and many speculated that the party the invitation was sent out for could be the official unveiling of Nokia's first Windows Phone. Well according to This is my next's Chris Ziegler, "no dice". So apparently this party was created with the intention of luring in potential developers of German heritage ahead of Mango's release and we've heard reports from other sources that this is true. Early speculation was that a new Nokia device would be shown off in an official capacity with some details, but now that does not appear to be the case.

However, Ziegler does mention that Nokia could still show its Sea Ray or tease another device to the public but seriously doubts any official details to go along with it (which is what we predicted as well). At least there's still a chance to see a future device in action, which is better than nothing, but what do you think?

Consolation prize! You now have a pretty strong answer for our (unfortunately-timed) poll!
