From My symbian:

Nokia today announced their new Symbian OS based device that opens new Media range of products. The 7700 is based on Nokia's own, new Series 90 user inteface and features a 65,536 colors, 640x320 pixels touch sensitive screen. The device supports GPRS, HSCDS and EDGE as well as Bluetooth (both data and audio) connectivity.

The 7700 is equipped with FM radio, MP3 player and RealOne audio/video player for both local and streamed content. HTML/xHTML Opera browser with Flash 5 support takes advantage of the large screen and its fit-to-screen function prevents horizontal scrolling.

7700 is equipped with digital camera (VGA). You can organize your photos using the built-in Images application or send them via email (SMTP, POP3, IMAP4) or MMS. 7700 is also equipped with a range of PIM and Office applications, including Calendar and Contacts as well as Word, Sheet and Presentation Viewer.

The phone weighs 183 g and its dimensions are 165 cc, 133.7 x 79.5 x 21.5 mm. The screen is operated with a stylus, with on-screen keyboard, virtual keyboard and handwriting recognition for text input. 7700 offers up to 25 MB of internal user storage memory and comes with 64 MB MMC card (up to 128 MB supported). Standard battery (BP-5L, 1300 mAh) provides up to 4 hours of talk time and up to 11 days of standby.

More information, pictures and demonstrations are available @ Nokia.com. New, separate Series 90 section of My-Symbian.com providing detailed information and applications for the 7700 phone will be available soon. Commercial launch of the Nokia 7700 is scheduled for Q2 2004.

Check out the pic at www.my-symbian.com. (Looks like something from a sci-fi movie).

It is marketed as a Media Phone and not a PDA Phone. Does this mean you can't compare with the P800/P900? But operating the phone will be quite similar to the P800. Think this is serious competition? I think not, SE has been ahead with regards to technology... Nokia is just the follower. SE will come up with something better in 2004.
