Nokia 5800 gets touched in the wild -- again

by Chris Ziegler posted Jul 26th 2008 at 11:33AM

At this point, we've seen the Tube from everyone but Nokia -- heck, even Morgan Freeman got a chance to show it off -- and it looks like that trend isn't going to abate any time soon. Another round of in-the-wild shots of the supposed XpressMusic 5800 have popped up (yes, the latest prototype seems to have dropped the "XpressMedia" badge), showing off a pretty uninspiring keyboard that we can only hope has no bearing on the final product. Guess that's why they haven't announced this sucker yet, eh? We hope?

"Uninspiring keyboard"??? You have go to be joking with me, slating up a comment like that. Guess if it were the new iMac TouchPad, you'd be hailing and praising like Obama going home to his place of birth in Jerusalem (!)

this is actually quite interesting... but soon Nokia will be shifting towards an Android/Symbian hybrid and nobody will care so I wouldn't bet on the success of a Series 60 touch-controlled device.. wait till 2009... you'll see...

iphone people sure like to show up quick when a competitive device shows up. Just like trolls. iphone reminds of a toy for kids 3-5 its just not going to let you do alot of the things you can on other platforms.
