Nokia 6600, the 7650 successor?

Is this the new series 60 phone we were expecting from Nokia this year?
Rather nice, with all the features we've been missing on the 7650. Although I still prefer the 7650 design.

Phone looks heavy.

Any idea what kinda price range this will be in?

So the fact that its an OS6 model will mean that it will definately be able to have all the same kinda apps installed on it as a 7650?

i think it is the ONE !!! :P :P

and from the nokia press release it says that compatible with Series 60 platform 2 stuff and MIDP 2.0

so does this means the OS is series 60 platform 2 or still 6 ??

Why oh why can't they upgrade the camera, 640x480 on the 7650 and 3350, I would like to have a higher spec cam. Probably the two things I use most on my 7650 are the calender-to do lists and the camera. Upgrading would make so much more sense (yeah, okay for me I 'm talking about). In my opinion the 6600 look like the bastard ofspring of a 7650x3350 mating. Not impressed.

I wonder what market the pinkish color is intended for...

Other than that, great phone! The first "normal" symbian phone, without strange key-layout or other funky, but unusual gadgets.

Great GReat phone. It seems it has it all.
But don't count on that before 2004.... With previoues phones, Nokia takes about 6-9 months until release. At leaste with the more powerful ones. 7650 was announced in Nov 2001 and released in July/August 2002.

But this is an awesome phone. I will replace my 7650 for this one. It's superb. All the features are nice... Maybe the camera specs could be a little better, but with the 65k color screen, it may help a bit. Please, God, make Nokia deliver this baby sooner!,,,,

GhostDog will become famous soon enough
The 6600 is stalking me today! Well,anyway,I don't know what is that platform 2 or 6 or 7 talk,I don't even think such thing exist.

It is running on Symbian 7.0(?) with Series 60 as an UI,might be 2.0.As for the apps,I hope Nokia thought of backwards compatibility,lets hope so.MIDP 2.0 is nice.
