Wah! Now Nokia is going to jump in the Tablet market.

Nokia design chief Marko Ahtisaari is spending a third of his time on creating a tablet for the cellphone maker, which would stand out among hundreds of iPad-challengers, he said in an interview with Finnish magazine Kauppalehti Optio.
"We are working on it," he was quoted as saying.

"We continue to eye the tablet space with interest, but have made no specific announcements," a company spokesman said on Thursday.

Nokia is widely expected to launch an own tablet using Microsoft's Windows 8 software later this year.

Though many companies like Samsung, HTC, Asus, Dell and Huawei are expected to launch Window 8 tablets, the ones from Nokia will gain more attention. It is because Nokia is now the official hardware partner of the Redmond software giant. And, the Finnish handset maker has been creating hypes over its upcoming tablets with Windows 8

Microsoft has made Office 15 Technical Preview available to a select group of people under the obligation of a non-disclosure agreement

This is essentially a closed beta, a more polished release for the public is expected in summer.

As expected, the interface design has been adjusted for use with devices such as a tablet PC, implemented using the Metro style that appears to be taking over all Microsoft systems.
