No one's going to accuse
Nokia of going after the high end, the fanboys and girls, or the fashionistas with its latest pair, but they've got at least two things going for 'em: 3G and blowout pricing. Starting on the left, the
S60-powered 6700 slide marks a distinct break for the company, shedding its tradition of Xpress-on cover compatibility for permanent shells available in six loud shades; it's supposedly pretty tiny (Nokia touts that it'll fit "in even the smallest pocket or bag") and still manages to offer up a 5 megapixel cam with Carl Zeiss optics. Next, the 7230 (pictured right) kicks up the style a notch (okay, really, they just rounded the edges and chromed them up) and offers a 3.2 megapixel camera to go along with its 2.4-inch display. Look for them both to hit retail in the first quarter of next year for around €160 and €100 ($240 and $150) respectively.

Honestly, these phones are a bit more exciting to look at than most dumbphones we have here in the US. We're always getting shafted, even in the dumbphone market.
These two new Nokias looks great, cool design and personality... which is an impressive improvment from this brand. What if the N900 cool look that cool ? I wish it would...
Also... touch screen versions would have been great...
Pardon me, but those on the left side, looks like Apple iPod Nano....
but no 3.5 mm?
@(Unverified)
The 7230 has a 3.5mm and the 6700 slide has a 2.5mm (I'm guessing that it will come with a converter or they're like $2 and only like 2.5 inches long so it's not that much of a hassle)
both come with a 2gb card

That 7230 is a sharp looking phone. Let's see how good it looks in real life.
