At the Growing Together 2008 Conference in South Africa today Nokia released 4 devices. Is that a Prism? For the entry market?! Find out after the jump along with the other 3 devices.

The Nokia 5000 is a 90 Euro device with a 1.3 megapixel camera, 240×320 resolution 65k color 2 inch screen, dual band (one version to be 900/1800, the other 850/1900), 700 mAh battery all in a 11.1 mm thin package scheduled to come out in the second quarter of this year.

The Nokia 2680 Slide will cost 75 Euros when it comes out in the third quarter of this year. It has a VGA camera, again dual band with 2 versions like the Nokia 5000, 128×160 resolution screen, 860 mAh battery and it is a hair under 15 mm thin.

The Nokia 7070 Prism is the cheapest fashion phone I’ve ever seen out of Nokia coming in at only 50 Euros when it hits stores in the third quarter of this year. You’ll get a dual band device, 128×160 resolution screen, 16 mm thin device, but with a ton of style. It looks like a clamshell version of the 7500.

      These devices are really killers, not just cheap’n'good designs as seen before, but attractive new form-factors and half the price than today nokia 2630, better designed and the same specs or superior. They are the real cash cow for nokia.

      These look suprisingly good..

      If only Nokia would start to put S60 on all of its phones.. but maybe that would require more expensive hw.
