Announced yesterday, the 8800 is the latest in Nokia's high-end slider series (my personal favorite of all the range). Featuring a stainless steel case and a ball bearing assisted slider, this statement in elegance is also packed with the usual array of features-- SVGA camera, Bluetooth, Triband GSM, high res screen, mp3 ring tones, digital music player, 3d rendering engine and more. What's even more compelling is that the ring tones were composed by Ryuichi Sakamoto.

No, it's not...
Nokia E70: Hands On
It took a week, but I'm now in love with my Nokia E70. I have always been a fan of the butterfly form-factor, but out of the box the new version of Nokia's S60 software felt as convoluted as Windows. After reconfiguring the menus, installing some great applications, finding an acceptable theme and getting it to sync with my MacBook Pro, I feel all...
Nokia 8800 Black
I've always loved the Nokia sliders, and was rather impressed with the stainless steel, spring loaded, uber-lux 8800 when it first came out last year. Now they've released an updated, super sexy all black version, distributed exclusively by Nokia UK. Apparently quantities are limited, but I'm not sure how much so. £799 direct from Nokia (via Shiny Shiny)...
