One of the bigger, if expected, events at today's CES Press Day was the announcement (three times) that AT&T will offer the Microsoft Windows-based Nokia Lumia 900 smart phone. AT&T announced the news Monday morning at a meeting for developers - with a hand from Nokia CEO Stephen Elop and Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer; Nokia then discussed it at their own event; and then Ballmer discussed the launch again at his keynote Monday night.
Pricing and specific timing for the phone have not been announced just yet.
The phone has a lot of appeal, but I have nagging doubts about whether the phone will actually drive widespread consumer adoption.
At an evening press event Monday called Digital Experience, I got a little hands on time with the phone. Thanks to Nokia senior communications manager Karen Lachtanski for demonstrating the phone; you'll see her in the video below.
