Alongside the introduction of Ovi, the door to
Nokia's new Internet services, Nokia today unveiled four new mobile
devices specifically optimized for entertainment, music and games. Each
device offers dedicated music or gaming keys, expanded memory, large
screens and extended battery performance to provide quick and easy
access to entertainment content. The devices range in price from 225 to

"From
the compact Nokia 5310 XpressMusic music phone to the fully-featured
