FCC has recently approved the stylish Nokia 5530 XpressMusic, which means the U.S. release will probably take place in the near future.

FCC has recently approved an the good looking Nokia 5530 XpressMusic, which means the U.S. release will probably take place in the near future.

As expected, Nokia has made its rugged 3720 classic official yesterday.

The Nokia 3720 will be out later this summer in a choice of several colors at an SRP of €125 ($174 USD) before taxes and subsidies.

• USB, stereo Bluetooth;
• Full QWERTY keyboard;
• Facebook client

No word on pricing or availability as of yet.

The release is rumored to take place in September.

Danish site mobil.nu got its hands on some engineering drawings that depict the future Sony Ericsson XPERIA X2 in a detailed manner. The handset looks exactly like the one seen on the previous leaked shots, so there's nothing special about these images. But any piece of info is always welcome here.

T-Mobile USA's CTO Cole Brodman, speaking today at an event in New York said that the company "has no plans to bring the HTC Hero to market" in the U.S. Instead they will be offering the HTC myTouch 3G.
