The Dark Knight does not care about iPhones or Androids he’s all about Windows Phone 7, wrapped into a black polycarbonate shell of a Lumia 900.

That, at least, is what Nokia wants us to believe as it prepares a Batman-themed Lumia 900, announced via Twitter.

The device, Pocket-lint learns, will be “extremely limited,” and will come only in black, with a laser-etched Batman logo on the back. It’s safe to assume that, functionality-wise, it will be exactly the same as the standard Lumia 900.

The packaging of the device might be different from the standard Lumia 900, though. Last year, Nokia produced a limited amount of promo Batman-themed Lumia 800s, which came in a special black box with a Batman logo.

The price and exact date of availability are not yet known, but the device should hit the UK, Germany, France and several other European markets “in the coming weeks.” It will be a nice addition to the enormous hype for the premiere of the next installment of Christopher Nolan’s Batman saga, The Dark Knight Rises, which hits theaters July 20, 2012.
