Alongside the sequel to the Shadow, T-Mobile is also launching the Nokia 7510 (previously known as the Supernova), a fashionable little flip with an FM radio and changeable faceplates. I saw these briefly at CES, and one of the cooler things about the plates is that the LED beneath them actually shines right through – a very cool effect overall. Also, I think the colour scheme on the phone’s UI changes depending on the plate that’s attached, be it brown, teal or red. Pick up yours for a mere $50.
