Technically Speaking

This phone is real eye candy, but is it functional? Nokia loaded it up with all the bells and whistles; its a cell phone, a web browser, a PDA, a 640×480 digital camera, and a mini video-camera. It is a Tri-band GSM phone and has BlueTooth technology built in. The screen is color and can display 9 lines of 30 characters but when wireless web-surfing the images are striped out of the pages. I would imagine that surfing the web would not be a pleasant experience. Nokia has equipped this unit with a rotary style keypad for dialing, but if you look closely, the numbers are not in their classic positions. It is listed at $500 without a calling plan and $300 with. From what I have read so far, this phone is more flash than performance. You make your own decision.
