Giving us a preview of what we can expect in early 2009, Nokia has officially announced the 6260 slide.
It comes with a 2.4-inch 320×480 pixel display, 5-megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss lens and flash, secondary camera for video calls, WiFi, 3G connectivity with support for HSDPA and HSUPA, microSD card support, and runs on the S40 OS. The 15.4mm thin Nokia 6260 slide is also the first S40 mobile phone to feature GPS with A-GPS capabilities. The greatest limitation to this decently-featured phone is probably the S40 OS, but I guess it'll suffice for its target audience.
The Nokia 6260 slide is expected to cost €299 or roughly $386 before taxes and subsidies. Details on which markets this will become available is yet to be known and we've got no reason to believe that it won't be headed for the North American region as well. Anyway, just to be certain, we'll keep you guys posted on any developments concerning this new slider from Nokia.
