Nokia's first flagship Windows Phone 7 device, the Lumia 800, isn't just another handset from another hardware maker. It's the future of Nokia, as the company puts the bulk of its high-end smartphone efforts into Microsoft's mobile OS.

Nokia has revealed the smartphones that it hopes will lead to the company's resurrection as the world's leading mobile vendor.
