The long-awaited Nokia 6650
3G flip phone made its debut in the U.S. Thursday with a retail-friendly price
tag of $70.00.
The new phone replaces the older N75 model, and features the Symbian-based S60 platform. The fold phone has four hours of talk time and runs on what AT&T calls the "nation's fastest 3G network" to provide features such as a dedicated menu key for AT&T Navigator.
The Nokia 6650 also features other AT&T services, such as a 2.0 megapixel camera; 2.2-inch display with QVGA (16 million colors) resolution; AT&T Video Share (the "first-ever service in the U.S. that allows users to share live video over wireless devices while participating in a voice call"); and AT&T Mobile Music that lets users listen and download music from Napster, eMusic and XM Radio.
The initial 6650 release was in Europe five months ago, and is only available on the T-Mobile network there.
The phone's regular price is $119, but drops down to $69.99 after a rebate and a two-year subscription.
