Nokia Unveils 2600 Classic & 1209

Nokia has a couple of new handsets in town – the 2600 Classic (as seen on the right) and the 1209. While both are entry level cell phones, the former comes with colorful, changeable Xpress-on covers, MP3 ringtones, an FM radio and a VGA camera. As for the 1209, this miserly handset comes with a pre-paid tracker (you can’t get any cheaper than that), a cost-tracking application (Hello, Scrooge!) and a multiple phonebook to share with your equally cheap buddies. Imagine having up to five people store their personal contact lists. You won’t have too many friends being that cheap though, and Nokia probably agrees by placing a 200-number limit on the phone. The Nokia 2600 Classic and Nokia 1209 will retail for 65 Euros and 35 Euros respectively before taxes when they are available later this year.
