Nokia 3650 Released in US Market

A Swing Dancing Dork writes "Check out the new Nokia 3650! Video and still imaging, MMS support,Bluetooth,Triband, and polyphonic bliss all wraped up in a uber-modern package." I was looking phones all morning so I'm glad this showed up. Anyone have advice on cel phones? I'd like IMAP, HTTP, and IM, as well as PDA functionality that can sync via bluetooth to a Mac. I was looking at the Sony Ericsons, but this may work as well.

    Anybody see the unauthorized realistic but bootleg commercial advertising this phone on the Net? I had a link to it but it has been since taken down by Nokia's Lawyars.

    It depicted a couple of zany guys taking a picture of a cat swinging from a celieng fan with this phone. Had the realistic Nokia logo and everything.

    Rumor had it that the commercial was put together by one of the ad firms in charge of (or denided) Nokia's account and leaked on to the Net from there.

    Definatly one of the most halarious .mpg's I have seen in a while.

    Maybe you should add spell check and grammar check to that list.

    Judging from the product's webpage they are marketing to gay cowboys.... I hope that everyone gets the same picture and nokia hasn't set up some rotating images because that guy is seriously funny looking with that hat...

      They use the same scripts that Amazon.com uses, so that they can market to people based upon their prior purchases. Kinda sucks that you can't go back and edit your post, doesn't it?

    Why do you wacky Brits call a line a queue? Why do you call the hood of a car a bonnet? Are you are fruity? :)

    Why do you wacky American's call it a "cell" phone? What is "cellular" about it? I (British) call it a "mobile" phone - because sic.

    Because "cellphone" is one word, two syllables, whwreas "mobile phone" is two words, three syllables. It's shorter, easier to say/write, and gets the job done just as well.

    Why do you wacky British always gotta have it "proper" even when it's a pain in the ass?

    I've been using Nokias since 99, and I pretty much have a permanent headache. Not to say that the two facts are inter-related, mind you(although Nokias are generally on the list for most radiation output). But I think I'll switch over to the Sony Ericssons when my contract is over with suck-fest Cingular...
