The mobile company today posted a video showing a woman ride a bike down a street. About midway through that clip, a text overlay comes up that reads, "things are about to change." The video's description on YouTube adds a bit more details, saying that things will change "on 5 September 2012. Stay tuned!"
Nokia announced earlier this month that it'll hold its New York press conference on September 5. The company said that event will be held in partnership with Microsoft, leading many to believe that Windows Phone 8-bundled devices will take center stage.
Microsoft made some waves with Windows Phone 8, saying that Windows Phone 7-based devices won't be upgradeable to the new operating system. Instead, the devices will be upgraded to Windows Phone 7.8 -- a version that adds some of the features found in Microsoft's new operating system, but not all.
