T-Mobile subscribers can now take advantage of the new Nokia XpressMusic 5610. The device is a quad-band GSM/EDGE music phone that features Nokia's “music slider” allowing for easy switching to the music player, as well as a 2.2" QVGA display, stereo Bluetooth, included 1GB microSD card, and a bundled external dongle with a 3.5mm jack.

The phone is available now for $99 on a 2-year contract.

The upcoming Nokia 5800 "Tube" has been recently spotted on a poster for the Germany's SMS Shop. Strangely, but it looks like it was rebranded to XpressMusic handset, rather than XpressMedia. Any guesses what this could mean? Anyway, according to the poster we now know for sure it does WLAN and HSDPA, and judging by the fact that all other phones in the picture have already been announced, we suppose that the Tube is also on its way of becoming official.

Following T-Mobile, Rogers is ready to release the Nokia 5310 XpressMusic phone in Canada.

It will come with a 1GB memory card in the box and will cost $99.99 CAD (about $101) on a 3-year contract after rebate.

This thin 9.9mm handset with a 3.5mm headphone jack may serve as a great music player, but expect to spend a little more to get a higher capacity memory card, coz 1GB is for noobs.

T-Mobile has added the new Nokia 5310 to its XpressMusic lineup.

It is a stylish candybar music phone, very thin (just 9.9 mm), and equipped with a QVGA display, 2Mpix camera, EDGE radio, microSD slot, and most importantly - a 3.5mm headphone jack.

It will be available in black with your choice of purple, orange, or red accents starting May 28 for $49.
