Nokia Maps 2.0 exits beta, still free

Nokia Maps 2.0 launched in beta form at the Mobile World Congress 2008 in Barcelona, Spain, bringing with it a handful of features that many S60 users were likely using to great extent. So, with the application's exit from beta testing, Nokia Maps 2.0 is ready to bring GPS navigation to the S60-masses for free.

Whether you're using the "Walk" mode to make GPS navigation easier for those hitting the road with two legs or "Crumb Trail" feature to keep track of where those legs have taken you, Nokia Maps 2.0 should make quick work of GPS navigating on your Nokia handset.

Nokia 6600 Slide - smooth slider phone

One of the smallest Nokia handsets to date, the Nokia 6600 Slide sits nicely in the hand and smoothly glides open to reveal a well spaced alpha-numeric keypad. The appearance of the slide version of the Nokia 6600 with its glossy look, high quality steel covers and aluminium centre key conveys understated elegance and visual simplicity.

The 6600 Slide has a well balanced feature set matched with the intuitive Nokia user interface. Tapping on the 6600 twice can indicate the time, puts the mobile phone into snooze mode after the alarm has sounded, silences alerts and can even reject incoming calls. The phone includes a music player, supporting many formats including MP3, AAC, AAC+, eAAC+ and WMA. Also included is a stereo FM radio.

The Nokia 6600 Slide has a 3.2 megapixel camera, equipping the phone to take high quality pictures, ready to be shared with friends via MMS, email, or online through social networking sites or on your blog. The screen on the phone is an impressive 2.2 inch QVGA supporting up to 16 million colours.

The Nokia 6600 supports Nokia Maps, turning the phone into a mobile Sat Nav device when used with a Bluetooth GPS module.
