Renault teams up with Nokia for Twingo Nokia special edition
How appropriate that a car not much bigger than a cellphone (okay, that's an exaggeration, but this thing's pretty tiny) would get slapped with Nokia branding, right? Sadly, the integration between the automotive and cellular worlds isn't particularly tight here; Renault hooks up proud new owners of Twingo Nokia special editions with Nokia 6110 Navigators -- perfect for use with the integrated Bluetooth -- but that's about it. There's some sort of "Nokia tech-themed" decal stuck on the Twingo's B-pillar, too, but we're pretty sure that thing would have to get removed right quick if we found ourselves with one of these in the garage. Sorry, Nokia; don't get us wrong, we're happy to take a 6110 off your hands, but no free advertising for you. Especially when it doesn't look badass.
Nokia 6110 Navigator gets its FCC wings
Now don't get too excited -- we suspect the 6110 still doesn't have any US-friendly HSDPA that was hurriedly added since its introduction at 3GSM, but we can still take comfort in knowing that Nokia's thinking of us on this one. Heck, we might even end up seeing it at a flagship store or two. As a refresher, the 6110 Navigator is a S60-based slider with integrated GPS, quadband GSM (hence the FCC nod, we reckon) and 3G data all the way up to HSDPA speeds; other features include a 2 megapixel cam, 40MB of onboard storage, and microSD expansion. No word on just when we might get our paws on a sample, but FCC approval is a solid first step.
Nokia's 6110 quad-band HSDPA GPS navigator
It's not just raining N and E-series devices today in Espoo Barcelona. Nokia also unveiled their Nokia 6110 navigator, their second device of the day -- after the E90 -- to flaunt both GPS and HSDPA data. The S60-based 6110 combines GPS and AGPS (assisted GPS) with quad-band GSM/EDGE and UMTS 2100 for up to 3.6Mbps of hot HSDPA data. This beast brings a 2.2-inch QVGA display throwin' 16 million colors, a 2 megapixel camera with sliding lens cover and flash, and MicroSD expansion to augment the onboard 40MB. The handset touts a 3.5-hour (GSM) and 2.5-hours (3G) talk-time or up to 11 days (GSM and 3G) of standby. The 6110 is expected to ship in Q2 for an estimated pre-tax, pre-carrier-subsidy price of €450/$583. A few more pics after the break.
