On FCC, apparently a talor made phone for Verizon. Looks like a slider phone, right?

[crazyze]

Extremely random design for a Nokia. Looks like a slider, but I cannot believe that is a Nokia!

[Viipottaja]

Yeah, I was a little puzzled myself. The article does not provide a link nor does it directly say the pic is of the phone. So not the most reliable source..

What is Nokia doing, that phone looks/functions so backwords. It won't even run Series 40! Give me the 5146 over this piece of rubbish OMG!!!!!! Nokia is driving me crazy with their rubbish:mad: :mad: :mad:

The 6280 and N80 better be awesome or I am gonna convert...

[zalameh1]

that is one ugly phone with one long antenna!!
i feel sorry for you americans..

It looks un-nokia like because it wasn't designed by them, it is an Asian handset originally released for SK Telecom.

Yes, I'm glad Brad told someone that...yeah I was ABSOLUTELY mortified when I first saw it. You have to remember, it's for Verizon;)

And yeah, it's stupid that Nokia actually agreed to putting the Verizon UI instead of the venerable S40...actually, it's stupid Nokia actually agreed to putting their name on this hideous monstrosity!!

7370 maybe?

[carcomptoy]

Yeah, but at least that one looks nice...I hope Nokia doesn't disgust us by releasing a similar handset for the GSM market:eek:

[Viipottaja]

Crazyze, what do you care what Nokia does in the US market? ;)

Anyway, Nokia is trying to get its foot in with Verizon plus adapting more to service provider demands. Having said that the phone does look shady, although specs are pretty good (except for the Verizon UI). The final phone might look better too of course.

HAHAHA yeah why are you going crazy over this? Not like this phone could ever be used over there in the UK in a million years anyways...:rolleyes:

[Dynamoo]

Nasty.

It's Pantech/Curitel device isn't it? I can't find the original handset anywhere though.

What were Nokia thinking? I mean, I've seen some uggggggllllly Nokia handsets, but this is just taking it too far. Couldn't they have found a *nice* EVDO phone to rebrand?

[crazyze]

I know it won't be released in the UK ever, but I still am interested in the direction Nokia takes its brand and this is just shocking!

[oneclick]

I agree - that is one ugly looking phone.

tnx-1clk

It's Pantech/Curitel device isn't it? I can't find the original handset anywhere though.I believe it is based on the SK Teletech (SKY) IM-7700. It is being manufactured by them as well.

[hotzigetty]

y would nokia bother badging such a sad handset as their own??
