Where do I send the money?

Yea, right! 🙄

I just played with the phone.....

it is a bit slow for the phone to start on almost like the 9210 (the inside).. the screen is fantastic beautiful colors it comes with a 32 mb memory card and a cd, manual and a home charger.

it has themes nice ones the phone has four to choose from, video recoder with sound, real player, opera browser, one iteresting thing i found is that there are a few applications you can choose and try up to three times and then you can buy them if you like it .

applications such as rocket pinball, HP application for printing, Kodac online picture gallary, worldmate, zipman, photographer...etc

The grip of the phone is quite big specially for someone with small hands. it has lots of ringing tones, some like rooster and grand prix and the other usual tones.

Guys i have some pictures to see but how do i submit them???

I think you can use the "Attach file" to upload your pictures. Please hurry 😎

ps. Interesting that the Opera browser is installed. Is this a full or trial version.

i just checked the asia-pacific nokia.com and the phone is already in the current model section!!! it's true!!!😃

Strangely, nokia-asia still lists the 6220 as upcoming, but it's been available for a while now.

just attach the file dude. im waiting for the pics. 6220 is available in india for a month now. but still the nokia india site says its not come out as yet. bcuz they are official pieces.

The final commercial SW of N6600 is V3.42.
Can some one confirm the release date of this version ?

...just tell me if they coloured your cardboard cutout well.😛


HAHA, no kidding, your just asking to lose money if anyone buys it from him.😛

The software version is 3.42.1
16-10-03

I will post the pictures today.

I can tell you this, the camera is fantastic and it has a zoom of 2X and not 3X. UIsing the photographer gives you 3X. The opera browser is a demo you have to buy it.

I have installed some of the 7650 games, its working but a bit slow specially bounce guess it nees to be updated or so.

nice to know ppl have some knowlegde bot the phone. miro and sabbath can u tell me if it is 3.42 or 3.42.1 ? waitin for pics.

The exact SW is 3.42.1

NOKIA PRESS RELEASE

October 27, 2003

Shipments of the Nokia 6600 smartphone begin

Add-on applications enhance the rich feature set ideally suited for
business and enterprise needs

Designed for a multitasking, mobile workforce, the Nokia 6600 phone
has started shipping. In addition to the advanced business features
and sophisticated imaging functionality, the Nokia 6600 introduces a
range of complimentary applications in Europe including a full web
browser and the possibility to upload and order prints of your
favorite pictures or print to a local printer with Bluetooth
connection.

With the new phone, Nokia introduces Try&Buy concept in Europe and
Africa region, allowing consumers and corporations to test a
selection of new applications available in the standard sales
package*. Accessible via the removable 32MB multimedia memory card
included in the sales package, all the new applications can be tried
three times after which consumers can opt to purchase an application
they wish to continue using. The applications can be purchased at
www.softwaremarket.nokia.com and from retail outlets around Europe.

Try and buy applications

Appealing to the need of frequent travelers, the tri-band (GSM
900/1800/1900) Nokia 6600 phone offers WorldMate application for
comparing the user's home time to 4 different clocks from over 1000
cities. It is possible to convert sums in 3 currencies at once and
get updated rates online, get 5-day weather forecasts for over 250
cities worldwide, or locate cities on the world map included in the
application. With the SlovoEd multilingual dictionary specially
adapted to the Nokia 6600 phone, users can quickly check the right
word in 5 European languages.

For the business user on the move, Quickword lets you read Microsoft
Word(TM) documents received by Infrared or Bluetooth on the Nokia
6600's bright color display. To manage your documents and other
multimedia files, ZipMan makes it possible to compress a set of files
into a single file so that they take up less space when stored or
sent via Bluetooth or infrared or as an email attachment. ZipMan also
allows users to open and view zip files sent to the Nokia 6600
phone.
Bringing mobile navigation to the Nokia 6600 phone, the Wayfinder
Mobile MapGuide functions both manually and with a separately
available GPS unit. It gives the phone owners a map and directions
with voice instructions for a number of cities in Europe. The Pinball
game on the memory card creates added fun.

To complement the sophisticated imaging functionality of the Nokia
6600 phone, VideoStudio M-style offers tools to edit video clips
captured with the device: for example, customers can combine multiple
clips into a single video and add separate sounds. Photographer
enables enhanced images with effects such as panorama, mirror and
humorous masks.

The Nokia 6600 devices in the standard sales package in Europe and
Africa also allow access to CNNlive, a breaking news service with
headlines, articles and photographs from around the world. The
service is available for a free trial period of two weeks after which
users have to subscribe on a monthly basis.

Complimentary applications

In addition to the Try and Buy applications on the memory card, the
standard sales package in Europe and Africa includes three
complimentary applications. With the full Opera HTML browser, now
bundled for the very first time with a Series 60 phone, allows
viewing web pages as on the desktop computer. Kodak Pictures
application enables consumers to upload still pictures from the Nokia
6600 phone to the Kodak Pictures album on the Internet. Users can
store pictures up to 5MB of storage at no cost on the online web
album accessible with the Nokia 6600 or a compatible PC, from where
they can conveniently order prints or share with family and friends.
HP Print application enables a wide variety of content types,
including photos, emails, contact lists, calendars and notes to be
printed directly to a Bluetooth Basic Print Profile (BPP) enabled
printer.
