Check out the new Nokia 5630 XpressMusic S60-based handset. This 12mm thick N-Gage ready handset comes with the following features:

• 3.5-mm headphone jack;
• 3.2Mpix 4x zoom camera with dual-LED flash;
• HSDPA/HSUPA data;
• Dedicated audio keys;
• Nokia's "say and play" feature;
• microSD slot (4GB card included)

Expected to be released in Q2 for about €200 before taxes and subsidies.

According to the Nokia Blog, a North American version of the Nokia 5800 will be available in US stores somewhere around February 26 for an MSRP of $399. That's really nice to know, but since it's not an official statement, we wouldn't get too excited in your place.

The popular Nokia 5800 XpressMusic has received its first firmware update. The latest build v20.0.0.12 adds in camera photo geotagging, full device search, and boosts the overall performance. The update can be downloaded through OTA update service or the traditional PC Suite.

The unannounced Nokia E75 has showed up at Expansys site today, and now we have some more confirmed details about the said phone. Here's what we know for now:

• 2.4" 320 x 240 QVGA display;
• Quad-band GSM/EDGE support;
• Dual-band HSDPA;
• Wi-Fi;
• 3.2Mpix camera;
• A-GPS

The device should be officially unveiled at MWC 2009.

Nokia's E75 has been spotted again, several months after it's first video appearance back in September. It is a stylish ultra-slim dual-keypad slider with a numeric keypad under the display and a slide-out landscape QWERTY keyboard. We can expect more info on the handset in the coming two weeks, prior to its official announcement. I think it's safe to say the launch will take place at the upcoming MWC 2009.

I'm sick of Nokia 8800. The phone itself is nothing to look at, yet they continuously make various luxury versions of it. The latest one is the Royal Edition, and boy is it ugly. Ok, let's just basically go down the list: we have 1160 wee diamonds around the edges and platinum plates on the front and back, and the same crappy technical specifications the original version has.

Only 50 of these will be made, and I don't even want to know the price.

Yes, this is a side by side video comparison of the upcoming Palm Pre and the old Nokia N95. Do you think it's fair? Who cares, this is just another reason to watch someone playing with the Pre... Enjoy.

Nokia will soon be releasing its E71 handset in a new color scheme. The red-silver E71 has appeared on the Nokia Europe site, and will soon be available for purchase.

Nokia has launched three new handsets including the 6700 classic, 6303 classic and the 2700 classic.

The 6700 looks similar to the 6300 model, but comes in black. It will feature a 5Mpix camera, aGPS navigation, and HSDPA support.

The 6303 comes with a 2.2" display, 3.5mm headphone jack, aGPS and a durable battery.

UMA-compatible phones are always welcomed at the market, and T-Mobile pleased its customers today by releasing two of such handsets, including the revised version of the HTC Shadow, as well as the stylish 7510 flip from Nokia.

The new Shadow is apparently the first Windows Mobile device to support HotSpot calls over Wi-Fi.
