Nokia today unveiled their spring GSM line for Europe and beyond in anticipation of CeBit next week. Although these phones are destined for launch outside of North America, it is likely Nokia will announce American version of one or more at CTIA in two weeks. Curiously, two of the three phones announced lack a camera.
- 6230i: An update to the 6230 featuring a new, higher-resolution 208 x 208 pixel screen, a 1.3 megapixel camera, and Visual Radio. The 6230i also includes Push-To-Talk, Bluetooth and class 10 EDGE. The music player now supports iTunes AAC (m4a) files as well.
- 6021:A tri-band 900/1800/1900 GSM/GPRS phone with class 6 EDGE, featuring Bluetooth and Push-To-Talk. Does not include a camera.
- 6030: A dual-band phone with an FM radio.
