Nokia "Wahoo" 3G half-QWERTY flip swings into view

by Nilay Patel, posted Nov 12th 2008 at 3:16PM

We didn't see this one on our exhaustive leaked Nokia roadmap, but our homeboy Boy Genius has uncovered pics and specs of a new Nokia flip destined for AT&T. Codenamed "Wahoo," the quad-band clamshell features an interesting half-QWERTY keypad, an internal 2.2-inch QVGA display and a 1.36-inch external unit, push-to-talk, microSD expansion, and A2DP support -- which you'll need because Nokia seems to think a 2.5mm headphone jack is still somehow acceptable. No word on a release date, but if you're waiting on pins and needles for a phone with a display that small we really can't help you anyway.

What surprises me is that person writing this piece is not impressed by the fact that this is the first phone from Nokia sporting this kind of QWERTY-keyboard and the fact that they are putting this into a clamshell phone. No, the 2,5mm jack plug and apparently 'small screen' seem to get all the attention. Nice (!)
