According to sources close to Bloomberg, Verizon is set to start selling a Nokia Windows Phone 8 handset later this year. The particular device will most probably be unveiled on September 5 in NYC during the Nokia / Microsoft press event which will be live streamed on the web. What is not yet known is if this device will be the higher end model or something less exciting (with AT&T retaining the exclusivity on the top end Nokia SKU).
