After reports that the first flash sale in China for the Nokia N1 saw 20,000 units being sold in 4 minutes, it appears as if similar success was seen enjoyed by the Nokia-designed and Foxconn-manufactured Android tablet in its second flash sale on Thursday.

Unlike the previous report, no numbers about how many units or how much time it took accompany the second Nokia N1 flash sale, beyond the claims that the inventory was sold out in just a few minutes but took longer than the last sale’s 4 minutes and 2 seconds.
