Nokia busts out a mess o' Series 40 phones: 6280, 6270, 6265

Alright, it's Series 40 madness today with Nokia, who's rolling out seven new Series 40 handsets. Let's start off with a trio of related phones: the 6280, a well-endowed 3G GSM slider phone, the 6270 that's a 2G version of the 6280, and the 6265 that's a CDMA variant of the same phone. The 6280 (above, left) is a tri-band 900/1800/1900 EDGE phone with a 2 megapixel camera, second VGA camera for video calling, miniSD slot, Bluetooth, FM and visual radio support. Its sister the 6270 (above, right) foregoes the second video camera but adds stereo speakers, making it a bit bulkier. It's a quad-band EDGE phone, though no U.S. carriers have signed on for this just yet. Last up, the 6265 is a CDMA-flavored sibling of the 6280 and 6270 and shares most of their features, but with no FM radio or stereo speakers.

I don't really need a 3g phone but they new Nokia phones look good - finally 6270 can replace my 6230 - its just the money problem

Nokias have great UI and now the slider looks finish off the package

With the phone on the left I can finally snap some action shots of my ear while I am using it.

I absolutely agree with #3. Why not have these phones use Symbian? They have enough storage and screen space for it.
