This phone, although lacks some features of the 5800, seems more towards the fun side of having a music phone.
It has scrolling contacts, ability to control music through home screen, more versatile home screen, and have more choices of colours and it comes with an IEM(although not that good in quality I'm sure, at least it is showing that this is a music-centric phone). It has the right eye-candy for the target market. Looking at this now, it makes the 5800 look more bussiness like.

Why didn't Nokia do this to the 5800? I mean, it's the flagship in the XpressMusic series. You're right J-Slade, if Nokia doesn't do anything about this soon to us 5800 owners, we'll be greatly pissed.

well, Digi will have 3G soon, so then what?

Their 3G broadband internat is already here. Once that has spread throught entire Malaysia, then they'll release it for cellphones.

No more than 1k I'm sure.
Most probably around 900 or under. The touchscreen from LG(i forgot what it was) was around that price and it to had no 3G.

Yeah cookie I think it was.
This phone will be under 1k, or the lg wins.

Nokia is silently challenging touchscreens in every price range.

The Cookie will die.

I would imagine teenage boys and girls, still in school would buy one of these. The choices of colours and 20 contacts homescreen with images seems to point that way.
It's not that hard to convince their parents to get one, since it'll most probably be surprisingly affordable(take note of the 5800 and N97), and many would want one. Seriously, in the world, not many under 20s would use GPS and the numerous 3G enabled features(like video call for instance).

5330?
I looked it up and the product seems to have gone missing?
It did exist at one point in Nokia Europe.

Well, either way for you it's free.

I read somewhere, it is estimated at 220 Euro which is mighty close to 1k. But estimated price isn't a good measure for actual retail price later on.

The N97 was supposedly close to RM2800, but it came out under RM2500. Similar for the 5800. So let's just wait.

There's a 5800 Navigation Edition.
It comes with a lifetime voice subscription.

That means you are given the chance to wait and collect more money.
Buy an original set is more recommended. There will be less to think of whenever there's a problem within the warranty period.

Probably the LG Cookie. There are probably a lot more out there but that one just pops into my head.
The only advantage the Cookie has is its bluetooth 2.1. connectivity wise, the 5530 wins hands down. the Cookie doesn't even have WiFi.

Upcoming Nokia models? Owh I misread that.
I'm watching out for the X6, Nokia's first capacitive touchscreen device.

Good choice, go with it.
Leave the 2k+ smartphones for later days.

How much for one of these now?
Ori.

I don't see why applications that works with the 5800 won't work with the 5530. they both run the same OS and have similar hardware.

Yes.
Red on black is better, although I have to admit, still just a little bit girly. Womanly I might add, think "Prada".

Go to phone settings, date and time. I forgot the exact way to get into it but it's pretty easy to look for it under settings.

owh, i see.
Hmmm, haven't encountered that one before. Try hard resetting.
