New Nokia 6290 Smartphone


Nokia has announced the 6290, among other phones today. This is a mid-level S60v3 FP1 flip phone.

According to Kai Oistamo, Executive VP and GM of Mobile Phones at Nokia, "Simplicity is what makes the Nokia 6290 smartphone so smart. The Nokia 6290 combines the collective power of S60 3rd Edition and 3G in an easy-to-use, attractively designed package. With the 3G subscriber base expected to double over the next year, there is a strong need for 3G models like the Nokia 6290 smartphone in our portfolio."

Some of the features include:

* 2MP camera with flash
* Rich Email client that includes Office documents as attachments (FINALLY)
* Quad-Band GSM (850/900/1800/1900) and WCDMA (2100)

**EDIT** - GSMArena has updated their page on the 6290, showing the bands and more specs. Linky.

The 6290 is expected to begin shipping in Q1 of 2007 at a retail
price
of 325 Euros. No mention is made in the press release about what bands
this phone will have. I will be doing more research and will edit this
post when the information comes available.
