A week or so ago, I saw the tail end of this commercial that looked like it was for a Nokia flip phone and it said something about coming soon this summer. It said it had bluetooth connectivity. I didn't get the model number. I only see one flip phone on Nokia's web site but it is a CDMA phone and is not available in my area.

I'm still in a contract right now with Cingular till the fall and after that I am going to get a bluetooth phone. I really liked the quality of the Nokia's but I went with a Motorola this last time to get the flip phone feature.

Anyone know what this phone is or am I just crazy?

 

you might be talking about the motorola pebl commercial.

 

^^^ DO they have PEBL commericial out already? How about SLVR I thought that one one is comming out before PEBL.

 

Maybe so, I could have sworn it was a Nokia though. I'll have to wait and hope I see it again.

 

I think you're going crazy... actually, here are the phones you are looking at.

http://www.nokiausa.com/phones/6255i (this is the one that is going to get released by Cingular this Summer)

 

50 bucks for the 6255? thats not bad, mp3 player, camera, color and (the most important) bluetooth

good stuff. i wonder how compatible it will be to the system

 

I'll defintely be looking at that 6255i. $50 is a good price.

 

mobilezen is right. Phones are coming.... but they're so much like Samsung phone... ?

 

6255i is a CDMA phone so it will not be released by Cingular. I think Midwest Cellular currently sells the phone and you can find unlocked ones on ebay that you can activate on Verizon.

 

Your right it is a CDMA phone. I guess this is the one I saw when I went to the website. The 6170 or the one that is coming soon, the 7270 don't mention anything about bluetooth.

 

D'oh! My bad. I didn't see this. Umm...I know Cingular is getting a Nokia flip this summer...I thought it was the 6255, ugh...sorry guys. The 6170 does not have 850 so Cingular is out of the question hmm...time to do more research.

 

I have played around with one of those two phone (cant remember which one). I was dissapointed by their display

 

I have played with both. On the 6170, the 1900 Mhz GSM band sound quality is awful.

 

Have you guys looked at the N90?

Seems kinda large, and no vibration, odd. I finally did see that commercial again and it was for the 6255i, however I still only saw the last bit of it and it did say it was coming soon. Maybe the GSM model, perhaps??
