Nokia announced new phones for distinct markets with the high-design L'Amour Collection heading the the US and other CDMA customes, while the Nokia 5700 Music smartphone has its own dedicated audio chip to the audiophile performance, finally the EUR100 Nokia 5070 is an accessible phone for the younger owner. Nokia 7088 L'Amour Collection Nokia is hoping the ladies will just love the Nokia 7088 part of the company's L'Amour Collection that brings an "indulgent palate of colors and textures" to this slider handset with just a touch of subtle pink. The Nokia 7088 is the first CDMA model in the L'Amour Collection and it is the first time the collection gets a slider phone. "The Nokia 7088 makes a striking first impression," says the company, "with attention drawn immediately to its jewel-like select key and carefully sculpted directional pad set into a metallic frame. Bold leather-inspired textures are found on front and back surfaces of the Nokia 7088, enhancing the tactile experience, and further accentuating the artful balance between technology and nature that is the hallmark of the L'Amour Collection's design ethos." The Nokia 7088 is expected to be available in selected markets in Asia/Pacific, Middle East, Africa, China and Latin America during the 2nd quarter of 2007. Nokia 5700 XpressMusic Unashamedly youthful, this affordable 3G smartphone is a phone with a twist.

Expected to retail for an estimated EUR 350 before taxes and subsidies and available this quarter, the Nokia 5700 XpressMusic supports a 2GB MicroSD card that can store up to 1500 tracks. The 2 megapixel camera and vibrant dispaly with up to 16 million colors supports exceptional video playback. This is the ideal camera for operators to bundle with music subscriptions as it has support for wireless stereo headphones using Bluetooth and can download songs and stream content quickly thanks to its 3G capabilities.
