Leak shows Nokia Cindy & Nokia Zeta NFC phones in the works

Spy shots and a feature listing has leaked out of Espoo showing Nokia has some new eye candy of the NFC variety in store for us, in the form of the Nokia Cindy & the Nokia Zeta. The Nokia machine appears to be on a roll with some nice pieces of hardware at the moment packing some NFC goodness. The images of the product were unearthed by the folks over at GSM Arena while the leaked spec sheet come courtesy of FlashFly.
