Nokia has just announced the 6700 Slide, a Symbian powered smartphone coming to market in the first quarter of 2010 for 160 EUR ($240) before taxes and subsidies. For that amount of money you get a 5 megapixel camera, 2.2 inch screen with 240 x 320 pixels of resolution, 860 mAh (tiny!) battery, quadband GSM/EDGE support, and triband WCDMA (3.5G) support. There will be a WCDMA 900/1900/2100 MHz version, presumably for Europe, and a 850/1900/2100 MHz version, perfect for the USA. There is no GPS, nor is there WiFi. Let me repeat that: no GPS, no WiFi. It’s only 110 grams, 15.9 mm thick, 95.2 mm long (in the closed position), and 46 mm wide. It has support for FM radio, 16 GB microSD cards, Bluetooth 2.1, and microUSB (unspecified whether or not this can be used to charge the device). There is no 3.5 mm headphone jack so forget about using this thing to replace your MP3 player.
And speaking about MP3 players, let’s be honest, doesn’t this thing look like a Microsoft Zune?
