Nokia World 2010 sees the debut of yet another handset, the Nokia C3 Touch and Type this time around. As its name suggests, this model will merge both a traditional keyboard as well as a touchscreen display, bringing the best of both worlds to a single device. Looking pretty much like the Nokia 6700 classic and Nokia 6300 phones, it will deliver familiarity minus the contempt, where single-handed operation is of utmost importance. Those who have been rocking to smartphone operating systems might find the Series 40-powered device to be rather ancient and clunky, but beginners to the phone world would probably figure it out without batting an eyelid. Features include Wi-Fi connectivity, quad band support, 3G/HSPA support, Nokia Messaging 3.0, a 5-megapixel camera with flash. On the outside, the fully stainless steel case adds a touch of class as you choose from Silver, Warm grey and Khaki Gold colors. Just in case there isn’t enough storage space, a microSD memory card slot provides adequate expansion options. Expect to fork out €145 for the C3 Touch and Type prior to taxes or subsidies as the handset is set to ship in Q4 2010. [Press Release]
