Sorry to double post, but I found out the Nokia 6680 will be coming stateside via the 6682.

Moreover, Nokia has entered a partnership with Microsoft to provide true music capabilities (including WMA) on their phones, including an online music store directly to and from the phone.

All the information is in this article:

Oh and by the way, I'm gonna be arrogant and point out that the 6680 keypad is incredibly similar to the one i put on that n-gage 2 mockup i made a while ago. Congratulations Nokia, it took you at least 8 iterations of series 60 phone designs to get the keypad and shape perfect, whereas it took me all of one 15 minute sitting and novice skill in Paint.

I just have one question for you! will the Nokia 6680 be working with the last Symbian version? 9.0?

[DarkSaber]

6680 features symbian s60 8.0 v3 and 10 Mb of system ram,while 6681 is a 7.0s symbian s60 equipped with 8 Mb of system ram.It will b interesting to know wich type of processor Nokia adopted for the two models.I hope that for the 6680 they adopted a step-up chip over the 200Mhz Arm9 featured in the 6630,but amongst all i hope that for the 6681 they will not use the old 123Mhz arm4t of 7610 (that uses the same 7.0s symbian platform) and choose a more powerful one.

And finally Nokia makes a 3G-phone with two cameras. But there are too many symbian phones now..I have no idea which to choose if I want a new one.

darksaber, where's it say the 6681 uses series 60 v7?

as long as there is symbian superior to 6630 that will be the phone to get

Seems nice. Just about the same size as 7610. Slightly heavier

Stereo MP3!! 1.3 megapixels. And that new Symbian version look (similar to 6630)

Reckon its worth upgrading from a 7610? :roll:

[dj^^]

it's better to be out soon!!!

i can't any longer with my 6630.

[nk_au]

I think I'll wait for Nokia to release a few more models. Gotta find one that looks nice ...

(to make my 7610 seem primitive ... :lol:)

The menu system and features are good. Don't really like the looks ... the more I look at it ... :-o

[dj^^]

but for a big thumb person like me, using 7610's 5 ways navigation isn't easy, esp if i need to play a game?

[dark-ilong]

does anyone knows whats 6680's processor is?

[marklloydbinar]

Is this 2 better than 6630? hope so......

[dj^^]

deft...i think..

would anyone spend a bigger sum of $$ buying phones lousier than be4...
i think nokia, may had already take note of this already..
