Europe
: Today, at the Nokia Connection events in Helsinki and Singapore,
Nokia introduced seven new handsets under the heading "Simple
Pleasures." Four new slide phones were revealed, including the
3G-enabled Nokia 6280 for WCDMA markets, and the Nokia 6265, Nokia's
most feature-filled CDMA model to date. Additionally, Nokia introduced
two folding designs and a traditional monoblock design. All seven
models are expected to begin shipping in the second half of 2005.
"Today's launches showcase Nokia's commitment to offer consumers
easy-to-use mobile phones in a variety of desirable designs - regardless
of cellular technology," explains Kai Öistämö,
Senior Vice President, Mobile Phones, Nokia. "Whether it features
WCDMA, GSM or CDMA internal circuitry, or whether it offers mobile
music, mobile photography or 3G services, a handset must be easy to
use in order to bring tangible benefits to consumers. Simplicity is
the key for technology to enrich peoples' lives."
Nokia 6280: Bringing video sharing and video calls to life

The
compact Nokia 6280 3G slide phone (WCDMA 2100 and GSM 900/1800/1900)
comes with a range of features that enable consumers to take full
advantage of 3G multimedia opportunities. Equipped with both a 2-megapixel
and a VGA camera, the compact Nokia 6280 provides an ideal platform
for 3G services such as real time video sharing and two way video
calls. Taking personalization a step further, the Nokia 6280 can announce
incoming calls with video ring tones. The Nokia 6280 is expected to
begin shipping in the fourth quarter of 2005, at an estimated retail
price of 375 EUR before subsidies or taxes.
The bright QVGA, 262,144 color display (320x240 pixels) of the Nokia
6280 highlights the phone's excellent photography capabilities. With
dedicated camera and zoom buttons, the Nokia 6280 creates a natural,
user-friendly conventional camera experience by operating the photography
function in a horizontal landscape mode. Photos and videos taken with
the Nokia 6280 can be viewed directly on the screen and then shared
with others via MMS, email or directly printed to compatible printers.
Pictures and videos can be conveniently stored on the Nokia 6280's
miniSD memory card. Bluetooth wireless technology provides easy linkage
to printers, PCs and enhancements like the Nokia 616 car kit and the
Wireless Boom
