This is probably just a sloppy mistake by a designer out there somewhere, but an eagle-eyed person noticed a poster showing the Nokia 5230 and X6 over at Oxford Street, sporting Google’s Android interface. It doesn’t look like Android will officially be used by Nokia anytime soon, but it does get your mind thinking what it would be like. It’s an interesting idea, though it doesn’t seem likely as Nokia seems to be banking rather heavily on its Symbian 3 powered N8 phone.
