Nokia's 3710 fold does 3.2 megapixels on the cheap

A little tip to Nokia: don't bother announcing stuff like this at the exact same time as monsters like the E72, because we assure you that no one's going to care. That's a shame, too, because the 3710 fold is a surprisingly well-equipped phone for the €140 Nokia will be asking for it (about $193) unlocked when it launches in the fourth quarter of the year -- on top of the standard Series 40, AGPS, stereo Bluetooth, FM radio, and concealed external display, you've also got a full 3.2 megapixels of photographic power and 3G. No carrier partners have been announced, but couldn't you totally picture T-Mobile USA wanting in on this in an AWS flavor?

We thought people had let this one go under the radar, Nokia have some weird strategies sometimes.

"on top of the standard Series 40"

Okay, I'm out. Like *hell* would I buy another Nokia with S40.
The Nokia 6555 is bad enough, why come out with another pile with S40?

S40 is not that bad. i have a nokia 2610 and find that it could do many things the iPhone can't do, ex: copy + paste and run opera mini :p

If Nokia DID release this through T-Mobile USA with AWS, I would almost certainly get it just so I could finally have a decent phone with AWS.

not everyone user wants to/can own a high end phone model such as N97 or E72, I know some people who would like this phone, because they dont need of the features the other phones have.
