Nokia 6301 Makes Wi-Fi and GSM Calls

With a sleek stainless steel design, the Nokia 6301 was launched offering consumers seamless voice and data mobility across GSM cellular and WLAN networks via Unlicensed Mobile Access (UMA) technology. With UMA technology, consumers can use GSM or broadband Internet-connected WLAN networks for mobile services, ensuring excellent coverage and sound quality, even in areas where mobile phone reception has previously been poor.

Orange will be one of the first operators to offer the Nokia 6301, as part of its Unik/Unique portfolio.

The Nokia 6301 is an evolution of the modern monoblock design. Weighing a mere 93 grams and measuring less than 13.1 mm thin, the 6301 is constructed of quality materials. To accompany the UMA technology, the Nokia 6301 also offers consumers a modern suite of features, including a 2.0-megapixel camera with 8x digital zoom and full screen viewfinder.

The clean lines and recessed buttons of the 6301 are highlighted by a stainless steel frame with hand-hugging curves. In addition, the Nokia 6301 includes:
- 2-inch QVGA screen
- USB/PC Synchronization
- Internal user memory of 30 MB and 128 MB in-box microSD card, with support for up to 4 GB microSD cards
- Voice dialing, voice commands and voice recording
- MP3 player, FM radio
- Integrated handsfree speaker

The Nokia 6301 has a talk-time of up to 3.5 hours and a standby time of up to 14 days, and is expected to begin shipping to select markets in Europe during the fourth quarter of 2007 with an estimated retail price of SDP $600.

Nokia E51 Unveils Business Phone

Nokia today unveiled the Nokia E51, a device designed for professionals who require real-time access. E51 users with Nokia mobility solutions can experience mobile telephony, mobile email and messaging, office phone functionality, and cost savings - with the convenience of one phone number, one voice mailbox, one dial plan - in a single device. Nokia simplified the use of its business devices via the following:

- A home screen including user-selected icons to the most used applications
- One Touch keys with one-click access to key functionalities including email, contacts, calendar and the home screen

These solutions deliver desk phone calling features - such as extension dialing, hold, transfer and conferencing - to a single, mobile device. Companies can also reduce their international call charges by routing the call over the corporate IP networks.

The E51 is also ideal for users wishing to leverage broadband connections to access mobile Internet telephony from homes and hotspots. For example, Gizmo, a Voice over IP (VoIP) application, is available for Nokia Eseries customers free of charge, enabling users to make and receive inexpensive calls from their mobile phones and chat or talk with friends who are online. Gizmo application is available to Nokia Eseries customers through the Nokia Download! application on their mobile phone.

The thin, stainless steel device is equipped with personal applications, including:
- FM radio, music and multimedia players
- 2.0-megapixel camera
- Nokia browser, serving as the gateway to a variety of Internet services including interoperability with Windows Live, providing mobile access to most popular Windows Live services including Hotmail, Messenger and Spaces, available through the Nokia Download! application
- Via the Download! application access to Yahoo Go! WidSets, and a number of travel, personal productivity and entertainment applications.

The E51 enables business users to collaborate, communicate, and operate whether they are conducting business from their offices, working remotely or traveling - while also keeping in touch with their personal lives.

The Nokia E51 will be globally available during the fourth quarter of 2007 for an unsubsidized retail price of approximately S$700.
