The Official Nokia 6205 Release Thread
Sorry for the lack of information for this device. Look for a release date around mid June.

Thanks for the pics. I wonder how the 6205 will differ from the Nokia 2605 and 7205

Looks nice. Though the main display could be larger. There's a lot of wasted real estate.

In fact, the internal display could be larger too. Maybe it's an entry level device and will not have a QVGA display?

By the main display I was actually referring to the internal one. My current Nokia clamshell refers to the large internal display as the "main display" and the smaller external one as the "mini display."

Either way, both areas have a lot of unused space which could have been used to improve the display. I don't see such a small screen having QVGA, but I hope I'm wrong. Having decent Nokias back in the line-up may prompt me to bring my voice line back to VZW.

I'm all for Nokia coming back to VZW and I understand this is an entry level phone, but it really doesn't look great.

If I remember correctly, some Nokias have FM radio. They should include that in their upcoming phones in order to differentiate themselves.

Judging by the pictures, there goes s40 and Diego. Nokia's BREW site hasn't been updated leading me to believe VZW neutered the software. The businessweek article leads me to believe that Nokia caved:

Is it really a Nokia without s40 and/or java?

Look great, but the displays are a bit too small, comparing to the V9m I use right now. If the RF is better, I'd consider it when the V9m start acting up. Otherwise, I'd wait to see the real world test first.

Nope. Throw in a Qualcomm chipset on top of this and everything that made Nokia standout would be gone. Might as well be a rebadge.
