Nokia 5800 Xpress Music – now official

Anybody surprised? As it was expected, the 5800 Xpress Music is now officially announced by Nokia. This is the first phone to feature a touchscreen while running on a Symbian S60 operating system. This is the new S60 5th Edition, which was also announced today. Rumors confirm and the 5800 Xpress Music will be a mid-level phone, priced at about $390 (EUR 280) unlocked with a 8GB card. Features include 3.2-inch 640x360 pixels display (good one Nokia!), 3.2MP camera, Wi-Fi, GPS, and 3.5mm jack. It will be available before the end of the year in either black, red or blue. There will be three versions: with North American HSDPA, with European HSDPA and GSM only.

$390 unlocked is a bit pricey for me. How much would this type of phone normally cost if one was to sign with a 2 yr contract w/ a provider like t-MOBILE OR at&t?

Wow good question, I can't imagine it would cost more than the G1 phone. Anyone know how much?

390 is cheap for being unlocked, and you cant buy it on contract.
