I'm sure they'll be some happy users for this one.]]>Nov 12th 2008 3:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/
I know Nokia means well and all, but if someone gave me half a sandwhich, I'd be pretty upset that it wasn't a whole one.]]>Nov 12th 2008 3:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/Nov 12th 2008 3:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/Nov 12th 2008 3:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/
I'm all for high-res screens, but anything more than QVGA is a simple waste on such a small size.]]>Nov 12th 2008 3:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/Normal 2mp phone that's probally directed to some heavy texter rather than web browsing. Thought how will this win compared to E63 or it's sexier sister E71. But then this will probally be only for North American market looking at that design.]]>Nov 12th 2008 3:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/Nov 12th 2008 8:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/Nice to see a non-chunky Nokia for a change but they should really work on making Symbian work well, it's interface needs modernising.
Nokia's smart interface is what helped Nokia wins it's commanding market share in the first place.]]>Nov 12th 2008 3:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/what ever happened to FasTap

They can't win by copying razr in it's home country... or actually anywhere in the world. People surely still remember it even if Moto is dead in Europe now days.

Phone looks ok and will be cheap phone and half qwerty sure is wierd one in Nokias line-up, but needs 2.4 screen. Will see what's the price point.]]>Nov 12th 2008 3:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/
There were spypics of an Cingular-branded N80 version - never came out. There was an customized E71 in the leaked list from yesterday, which was a finished proto almost a year ago, so it has been cancelled as well. AT&T also didn't take the E71-2, the N95-3 or -4 either, and there are no rumors that they will take the N85/N96 NAM...

It's not like Nokia isn't trying I'd say...]]>Nov 12th 2008 3:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/]]>Nov 12th 2008 9:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/Nov 12th 2008 3:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/Nov 12th 2008 3:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/

Ahhh... the day when they run out of catchy phone names, I will laugh, very, very loudly.

I think it'd be interesting as an S60 phone...]]>Nov 12th 2008 4:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/Nov 12th 2008 5:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/Nov 12th 2008 5:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/Though since I want a high resolution camera, don't think flip phones really offer that....unless you're in Asia.


On a side note, in Best Buy's ad they had a N96 on contract with T-Mobile for 600 dollars]]>Nov 12th 2008 5:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/]]>Nov 12th 2008 6:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/Nov 13th 2008 3:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/12/nokia-wahoo-3g-half-qwerty-flip-swings-into-view/Wah-hoo-wah.
