Nokia didn’t have too much to show off at CTIA Wireless that we didn’t see in Barcelona last month – namely the AT&T E71x and even that is nothing more than the same ol’ E71 with a gold star to make it feel special. Of course there was the very cool flip that was launched just last week on Verizon, the Intrigue. The Habitat interface for managing contacts and correspondences is really compelling, and the Nokia 7205′s form factor is really slick – it feels like it sits apart quite a bit from their usual design. The N86 and N97 were both nice to see again after Mobile World Congress, but not to dismiss a phone that isn’t even out yet, but… been there, done that. Didn’t have a chance to ask the Ovi guys about what’s happening with Mosh, so it may be worth a second trip to their booth before the show is done.
