We're not getting
played for a fool again until we actually have a real, actual device resting comfortably in our hands, but Nokia's promising to bring the 3G love to the US for reals this time with its new N75 clamshell, announced today as part of its
Nseries onslaught. The S60 3rd Edition handset looks to pack a decent punch into its 95 x 52 x 20.2mm form -- which Nokia is dubbing its "smallest multimedia computer," bearing in mind the
E50 isn't considered such a device -- bringing a 2-megapixel cam, 40MB of internal storage with microSD expansion to 2GB, integrated stereo speakers, Bluetooth 2.0, QVGA internal and 160 x 128 external displays, quad-band GSM / EDGE, and some of that sweet, sweet WCDMA on the 850 and 1900MHz bands. Best of all, it's being promised for US release in the fourth quarter of 2006; we don't if
you-know-who has decided to pick it up, but if not, we've every reason to believe the unlocked versions will be flying out of Nokia's own warehouse at a brisk pace. Check after the break for more smooth, creamy, flippable S60 goodness.

What appreciating such feature?
Me fail English? Unpossible!
Perfect.
My cat's breath smells like cat food.
Where is Wi-Fi??? :(
is this a joke? are you guys pretending to be excited?
My old w800i had better features. Come on, not even an autofocus or flash? Sure quadband 3G and edge is cool, but hasn't that been done before? I'll stick to my k790i, thanks
ps who wants to take a stab at the N-Price?
The press release says it has flash capabilities - and it's natural for a North American website to be designed from the ground up with NA tastes in mind (quadband, 850/1900 3G and a flip).

First off the flash on just about every phone out there is basically pointless, unless of course you like your low light pics looking like you are looking through driving glasses. As for the comment about a quadband device with US WCDMA 850/1900 being done before. In all reality this is the first NOKIA device that has done that.
As for price. I bet it will be around $400 - $450 undedicated. If Cingular picks it up then I would say about $250 - $300.

An you have to remember that N75 is a smartphone SE w800i or k790i is not. N75 looks very very nice!! I want one!
Does WCDMA on the 850 and 1900 bands mean an unlocked version works with the CDMA (Sprint and VZ) as well?
A great replacement for my aging RAZOR. Until Apple releases an "iPhone", this will do just find. Nokia's build quality is markably better than most any other offering to date.
Regards,
In response to post #9 i heard that the iPhone is suppose to be coming out in mid or late January of 2007. I cant wait for the N75 to be out within the next week or two
