Nokia's first Windows Phone 8 devices to be unveiled next month?

The phones will be debuted at the Nokia World event on September 5th, say the sources.

If accurate, Nokia seems to have picked a time just one week before Apple reveals their latest iPhone, a date that is likely not coincidence as the struggling smartphone maker tries to take market share from Android and Apple.

The operating system will bring much-needed changes to the platform, most importantly support for dual-core chips and higher resolution displays.

Nokia recently lost its crown as the world's most prolific phone maker, with Samsung out-shipping them last quarter.
