Nokia introduces a new entry-level touchscreen phone, the 5230

Nokia has introduced an entry-level touchscreen model, the Nokia 5230. It's more or less the same deal as the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic, but without the Wi-Fi and a camera that is only 2 megapixel. This new model has a 3.2-inch resistive touchscreen with a resolution of 640 x 360 pixels, FM radio, 3.5 mm audio jack and microSD card slot. It also includes the latest Symbian S60 5th edition. It seems this phone will be capable of playing 33 hours of music. Some nice features are Ovi Maps and social networking integration such as Facebook, MySpace and YouTube. The colors available are black and white for the front panel and red, pink, blue, yellow, silver and dark silver for the rear covers. It will retail for $215 later this year.
