Hi,I just read the manual from FCC site, and I dont see any major improvements over the 3650. Just the keypad and the screen (65k). Camera is still without zoom, no themes, all other same as the 3650. I think that upgrding from a 3650 to 3660 is a waste of money, i wait for my 6600.
Where do you find the manuals on the FCC site. I would like to look at the 6600 one.
Thanks.
Well,that's Nokia.There new changes because the 3660 unlike the 6600 is runing on the same platform as the 3650,Symbian 6.1 and Series 60 1.x.On the other hand it might mean that Nokia don't wan't to reveal any more information and they are using the old 3650 manual.

This link is the index location for all the FCC documents about the 3660.

MAYBE I'M JUST BEING PICKY BUT THE FCC DOCUMENTS REFER TO THE 3660 & 3669. THEY ALSO REFER TO NHL-8 & NHL-8X. ARE THESE MISTAKES OR SOMEONE TAKING THE P1SS?
NHL-8 is the old reference for the 3650.
Perhaps there will be 3669 for the American market with different triband frequencies i.e. the two US ones one of ours? Just a guess.
i've already read somewhere that it's to be called the 3620 on the american market but i can't remember where i read it. are the NHL references not device specific? i thought they were different for every type of phone.
I think that now the cat seems to be out of the bag, that Nokia should come clean and officially say what they are bringing out, what numbers they will have and where they will be sold 😃
i agree! i've been clutching at straws trying to shoot this rumor down. i hope to god that i'm right in being sceptical.
I never realised that there is a US version of the 3650 the dual band (850/1900 MHz) 3600. You can find the details here. So the 3620 will be the 3660 USA equivalent. I've never actually heard of anyone having the 3600 though?
So i guess that they made this phone, only because people complained about the keypad.
yep, plus reduced texting means less revenue.
BTW: does this mean there not making any 3650's anymore?
Given the choice, which one do you think operators will
want to order(out of 3650/3660) ?
regards.
you know what? here in holland i dont see any 3650 phones anymore i mean not to much and in the folders you know where to buy from they dont have them either
so this is for real
i wonder what the price is
I think it will be the same price as the 3650 when it first came out. Or maybe just a little more expensive. Because of the 65k scrreen.
So royal are you gonna buy it?
No, i think i will keep my 3650 for some time. Still love it 😎
i'm gonna wait for a Symbian Nokia that has some major improvements over the 3650. 6600 has too little improvements i think. I'm thinking about a screen with 262k screen or more, mp3 stereo player, FM radio, camera with 1,3megapixel or more and lots of phone memory, about 20MB (i hate the 3,4MB we have now). Would be nice if the phone could also play mpg, wmv, rm and mov files 😉
So if you see my list, you know i'll have to wait sometime for a new phone 😃
if nokia do produce the 3660 i think we should all boycott it. i know it will have improvements that will appeal to some people but what better way to show nokia that the should develop phones with these features in the firstplace.
Boycot it?!!?LOL!
Roling out similar devices is standard practice for Nokia.
6310
6310i
7250
7250i
9210
9210i and many more...
When these products didn't suffer any boycot i don't see the 3660 suffering different fate.
You forgot 8910-8910i
and 3510-3510i
Ok I know we had a leap from mono screan to color.
But isn't this frustrating if you have in mind the people that have bought the none "i" phones and a few months later on the same prize the "i"versions were realesed?

I assume the 3660 is S60 v1.0 and not V2.0 as in the 6600?
Why will anyone buy this when the 6600 is coming????

I'd guess its going to be quite a bit cheaper.
I suspect the 6600 will be top of the range and 3660 mid range.
Up to 3.4 MB internal dynamic memory for phone numbers, messages, and photos
😞 😞
Still only 3,4 MB phonememory.
- New Keypad
- 65k colorscreen
That's all the differnces they made. If you dont have a Symbian phone and want one for (i guess) good price. 3660 is good choice.
But if you allready have a 3650, IMO it's not worth it to change for a 3660.
If you buy a 3660 case, and replace your 3650 one.. would it work? may be no because of the diplay of the buttons.. But apart from this, and the 65k colour screen, it's not a new phone. should be called 3650i

NO, it will not work because the keys are on different places.
YES, they should have called it 3650i 😃 Small adjustments
(see 3510/3510i, 7250/7250i, 8910/8910i, 6310/6310i, 9210/9210i) They also should have called the 3330 a 3310i.😎

I agree, they should have called it a 3650i
But maybe Nokia decided to call it 3660 instead for 2 reasons
1st) They new that if they called it a 3650i they would have a lot of very angry customers screaming "Why didn�t Nokia release the 3650 with a normal keypad and 65k screen to begin with. I hate Nokia for doing this"
2nd) By calling it a 3660 Nokia can continue to sell the 3650 alongside of the 3660 and people will still buy it. But if they called it 3650i people would say something like �Why would I buy an outdated model� and Nokia wouldn�t be able to sell anymore 3650s
