Note the logo on the upper right corner. I'd prefer S60 logo though, Symbian is not a consumer brand.

Good grief. Another beautiful S60 smartphone that doesn't appear it will make it to the US. I wish our US carriers would wake up.

If that Symbian logo appears on the finished product, it must be the first ever mention of the OS on a consumer device.

Looks very slick. Pity it's not 3G / HSDPA though

It's rather like the SGH-i520's little brother. The i520 is due out in Italy any day, and that has got 3G/HSDPA.

Now this is what Nokia designers should aim at. It's quite a looker! Apart from the N76, nothing in the Nokia stable makes one go "oooh". The LG ain't a bad looker too.

Pity about the 3G but we here in India aren't complaining as 3G is of no use to us. Not until we have the damn networks. May be we will skip straight to 7G.
