i recently bought a nokia 5530 from nokia for $170… Its an awesome phone and tne best part is that i dont have to pay for tmobiles data since everywhere i go has wifi… It doesnt matter if that ones coming out for tmobile bc ill still save money by not having to get data for a decent phone with internet with contract

@Mobilerocks
I believe it will require a data plan since it is “considered” a smartphone.

The info gets confusing.
I remember I checked FCC info (re-directed from phonescoop) a few days ago, I got 3G 850/1900, but now when I click same link from phonescoop (same RM-593), I got 850/AWS.
This is strange.
When I check nokia.co.uk and nokia.com.hk, I found 5230 will have either 900/2100 and 850/1900, but now we see 850/AWS on FCC
it’s probably…
5230-1: 900/2100
5230-2: 850/1900
5230-3: 850/AWS

I love my nokia 5310 xpress music and I was about to buy the 5530 xpress music. I might just wait for this. I hope it turns out to be true!

This is exactly the phone I have been impatiently waiting for to replace my ancient S60 6600. I say that there is no beating Nokia quality/durability.
But if it is going to require a $30data plan, I will pass.

Cool mid-level device, hopefully the next generation of the phone will be suited with Maemo5 or Maemo6. Nokia sees Android as a threat and plans to tackle them head on…this is just the begining. I guess we will be seeing a flood of Maemo devices in the near future…WELCOME NOKIA
