NEW ORLEANS, Mar 17, 2003 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Introduced today, the new Nokia 6585 phone, one of the lightest CDMA2000 1X phones introduced in the Americas, marks the latest addition to Nokia's (NYSE: NOK) growing family of CDMA2000 1X handsets. Striking a perfect balance between elegant style and cutting-edge technology, the 3.1-ounce Nokia 6585 phone is designed to appeal to the fashion-conscious consumer looking to benefit from advanced wireless features including high-speed data support, custom downloadable applications, an integrated FM radio and a built-in speakerphone. Shipments of the Nokia 6585 phone are expected to begin during the fourth quarter of 2003.
For the latest in messaging, the Nokia 6585 phone includes Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) support. With MMS, users can send and receive graphics, images and text in a virtual "postcard" between phones or to an e-mail address. The optional Camera Headset accessory even makes it possible for owners to use their Nokia 6585 phones to take pictures and send them to friends and family wirelessly or use the images as a custom wallpaper for their phone display.
A full suite of customization features allows Nokia 6585 phone users to personalize the look, sound and feature set of their handset. User-changeable Xpress-on(TM) covers in the newest fashion hues and a selection of on-screen color schemes let owners coordinate their phone to their daily wardrobe, while improved downloadable polyphonic MIDI ring tones with 16 individual sound channels clearly reflect their taste in music. Java(TM) technology provides for downloading of new applications that allow Nokia 6585 phone owners to create a set of features that fit their diverse lifestyles, whether that includes productivity applications to organize a busy schedule or action games that take advantage of the 128x128 pixel full-color display.
"Before the Nokia 6585 phone, CDMA customers wanting a small, stylish and fully-featured handset have had a very limited selection of colors and form factors from which to choose," says Soren Petersen, senior vice president and general manager of Nokia's CDMA business unit. "The Nokia 6585 phone doesn't just offer a new level of design; it also combines the latest technology with Nokia's easy-to-use interface to create a personal companion that makes using new mobile services a simple, fashionable and enjoyable experience."
Whether users access data services via the built-in mobile Internet browser or by connecting a PC over infrared or with the optional USB cable, the Nokia 6585 phone features Nokia's own CDMA2000 1X chipset for reliable access to high-speed wireless networks while integrated GPS support allows the Nokia 6585 phone to interface with carrier E911 networks.
Because mobile communications now means much more than voice, the Nokia 6585 phone includes support for a variety of text and visual messaging methods. Two-way text messaging keeps mobile users connected to each other while the newest Java(TM) standards make using a Java(TM)-based Instant Messaging application to let the Nokia 6585 phone integrate seamlessly with the desktop IM experience possible. Predictive text input speeds the typing of messages, and 10 pre-defined templates make it easy to reply with common phrases such as, "I'll be 15 minutes late" or "Thank you" in just a few keystrokes.
