Not the Nokia SabreLast time we had a Nokia handset’s details revealed Joe Marini was fired.  I don’t know who will be getting their pink slip today, but the organizers of a developer competition of Microsoft may be wanting to look at their CVs.

In the contest rules they write:

The estimated retail value of the phone is $600.00. The type of Windows Phone 7.5 will vary and will be selected at Microsoft’s choosing (examples include Samsung Yukon, Samsung Wembley, NOKIA Searay and NOKIA Sabre)”

WPCentral suspects the Samsung Yukon and Wembley are just Samsung Focus S and Omnia W variants, but the Nokia Sabre is brand new to us. Hopefully it is that QWERTY slider many have been dreaming off.

Apparently the Sabre will sport a 3.7 inch screen and a microSIM slot, suggesting a small and slim device.

See the contest rules before they get taken down here.
