It seems like Nokia inadvertently posted a photo of a white Lumia 900 on their Facebook page.  Though the description on the photo states that it’s the white Lumia 800, Nokia fans were quick to notice that it isn’t.

So what was the giveaway?  The front-facing camera.  You see, the Lumia 800 doesn’t have the front facing camera, even the white one. But the photo of the white device on their page clearly shows a front facing camera, so yeah, it’s the Lumia 900.  And people are already begging Nokia for details: When is it coming out?  How much would it cost?  Will it be available internationally?  Of course, Nokia did not answer their questions.  Guess we’ll just have to wait for it to officially hit shelves.

Apple’s VP of iPhone and iPod Engineering, David Tupman, left the company.  Though this is not something that happened recently, according to 9to5mac he left at the end of 2011, Apple has yet to fill the position but is said to be looking for someone from the inside to replace Tupman.

Apple’s Director of iPod and iPhone Engineering Vic Alessi might be the one to replace Tupman since he worked closely with Tupman on iPhones and iPods.  As for Tupman, the reason for his departure was not disclosed, nor his future plans, but a man with his stature will always have a place in Silicon Valley.

Instagram, the photosharing app made for iOS devices, will soon be available for Android devices.  The giveaway?  A notification that popped up in the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1

According to In Flex We Trust’s Tat Wza, “I was just on the 10.1, when this ‘Featured App’ little green guy, and the word Intsagram poked out like….well like Crazy.”  But when he checked the Android Market for Instagram, it wasn’t there.  So it could be a glitch, or a hacker playing tricks or the may soon be available for Android.  Again, all we can do is wait.
