Nokia N79 Eco shrinks packaging, ditches phone charger
If syncing your phone with a workout routine isn't your cup of tea, Nokia has unveiled another N79 variant, the Eco. For the same cost as the standard version, you'll get smaller packaging, a petrol black casing with dark gray / steel gray / deep plum covers, and no charger whatsoever. The company is hoping you'll reuse your old charger instead of throwing it out. As for the outdated phone that came with that adapter, we're sure they'd love you to send that back for spare parts. The Eco is now available for pre-order from Nokia UK, with £4 of each purchase going towards the World Wildlife Fund. [Via All About Symbian]
Nokia N79 gets unboxed on video
We've already seen Nokia's N79 up close and personal, but if you're just not ready to commit until you see exactly what your potential purchase will entail, you may want to hit up the Nseries Workshop blog, which has the requisite unboxing video of the device, on video and outdoors, no less. In case you missed it when it got official, the phone is a tri-band GSM number, and packs a generous 5-megapixel camera with a dual-LED flash, built-in WiFi, 4GB of microSD storage, swappable back covers (as seen above), and an unfortunately lackluster screen -- at least in our experience. Head on past the break for the complete unboxing.[Thanks, Steve]
