Nokia has unveiled three new phones. These include the fashionable new 7900 Crystal Prism, the 1209, and the 2600 Classic. The Crystal Prism is aimed at design-conscious buyers, while the other two are targeted at customers in emerging markets.

Nokia 7900 Crystal Prism

The Nokia 7900 Crystal Prism has a seamless diamond-cut design with a crystal center key and continues to highlight the geometric shapes and personalized style of the Prism Collection. Nokia has worked in collaboration with creative designer Frdrique Daubal, which resulted in some unique laser-etched graphic designs, distinctive wallpapers, as well as exclusive accessories. The Crystal Prism features an OLED display with organic, modern digital art wallpapers inspired by Daubal. It’s equipped with a 2 megapixel camera, 3G technology, 1GB internal memory, and a music player with matching headset. Users can personalize the keymat light by choosing from 49 colors.

Nokia 2600 Classic

The Nokia 2600 classic allows consumers to customize their phone with colorful, fully changeable Xpress-on covers and MP3 ring tones. It also features a number of entertainment features, including an integrated FM radio and a VGA camera. According to Alex Lambeek, Vice President, Entry Devices, Nokia: "The 2600 classic offers a colorful sense of flair and a robust set of features at an exceptionally accessible price. As with all Nokia devices, it's backed by a brand that stands for quality and durability."

Nokia 1209

The Nokia 1209 offers additional cost management features to make phone sharing easy and convenient. It uses the prepaid tracker, a cost-tracking application, and a multiple phonebook that allows as many as five people to store personal contact lists of up to two hundred numbers on a single phone. Designed for first-time buyers, the 1209 incorporates Nokia's intuitive user interface, dust resistance, and offers up to 80 languages. There's also a 'torch' feature. A one-piece keymat ensures durability and reliability.

The 7900 Crystal Prism will be available in the first quarter of 2008 at an estimated retail price of Rs 21,435 (€375), before taxes and subsidies. The 2600 classic will ramp up in key markets during the first quarter of 2008, and retail for approximately Rs 3,715 (€65) before taxes. The 1209 will be available globally in the second quarter of 2008 and cost approximately Rs 2000 (€35) before taxes.
