This new mobile phone from Nokia will surely keep you right on track with its integrated Nokia Maps to guide your way. Travelers should expect this phone to be available by the first half of 2010 with an estimate price of €130 only.

Nokia 2710 will be the cheapest mobile phone to offer navigation features. It is packed with a digital compass so you’ll easily find your way to the East or South. What makes this phone cool is its capability to give voice directions and its built-in local maps so users wouldn’t need to go online to check the maps.

Aside from that, the handset has a reliable 2 megapixel camera and 2GB memory card. Nokia 2710 also gives music entertainment with its MP3 player and FM radio complete with a useful 3.5mm audio jack.

Nokia N97 mini has 8GB internal memory with a touch screen display and a QWERTY style keyboard. The memory is also expandable up to 16GB with an external memory card. You can get this mobile, SIM free at $579.00.

On the other hand the Nokia E72 cost about $469 which is a bit cheaper than Nokia N97 mini. It has some new features along with 5 mega pixels camera, QVGA display which shows 16 million colors etc.

The leading mobile phone manufacturer decided to close the doors of its store in Regent after almost two years of its service. This is actually the flagship store of Nokia in UK and their eighth store around the world which opened last February 2008 only.

According to the statement released by the company, “Nokia is crystallizing its branded retail strategy, aiming at improving operational efficiency of its retail network. This requires revamping of the retail network.” The Heathrow store which is in Terminal 5 will continue to be operational. Nokia Regent Store which is 7500 square foot in area has 30 employees who will be affected by this change.

Nokia is definitely learning from the mistakes of other mobile manufacturers. Preparing the best for high-end phones, the company is developing a new mobile phone that shutterbugs will be totally thrilled to have. The new N87 mobile phone that Nokia will hopefully release within the first half of 2010 comes with an amazing 12.1 megapixel camera that can actually take high quality photos.

Though very little is known about this high-end N87 phone, details are spreading that the phone will also feature a 3.2 inch capacitive touch screen with 400 x 800 resolution that suits perfectly for this handset. Specifications for a device like these can already be speculated so we can be expecting a smartphone that has  a 16GB memory for storage, MicroSD card slot for expansion and a Symbian OS would work fine too.

The new Symbian OS that will come next year is promising better performance with its improved user interface. Previously released mobile phones that run the said OS showed that this Nokia software can be improved. Now Nokia is heeding the unsolicited advice and is working on major changes.

Nokia CEO Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo said in the recent Capital Markets Day that, “In 2010, we will drive user experience improvements, and the progress we make will take the Symbian user interface to a new level.”

According to Engadget, the improved Symbian will have multi-touch input for large capacitive displays and lesser steps for its frequently used functions. Better web browsing experience and a faster OS can be seen in the new Symbian.

The increasing demand for mobile phones around the world is one of the factors that Nokia considered in the estimated 10% increase in the market volume. According to the latest statement of Nokia’s finance director Timo Ihamuotila, Nokia has competitive advantages in areas where the mobile market is getting stable.

With this, it can be expected that Nokia will be more aggressive when it comes to improving and selling their product. Nokia also calculates that their profit margin by 2010 will be within the reachable 12-14 percent which shows improvement too. Though the Nokia cellphone market prediction is optimistic, the company’s shares are a bit on the rocky side since it’s down by 1% at only €8.82 compared to the even weaker Dow Jones Stoxx European Technology Index which is currently down by 0.6 percent.

Nokia users especially with the E71 and E72 handsets are all smiles now that their mobile phones get the new and well-loved Facebook App available for their phones. These two models can now be used in updating and reading status, add friends, send messages and upload pictures with this direct link.

Aside from that good news, Nokia also plans to include the Facebook app in more coming smartphones thus eliminating the need for users to download the app. Though the app is free for download, it is hassle for some to constantly download the latest version when you already get direct access. The Facebook app is also available for other Nokia mobile phones such as the N95, N73, N85, N86 and E75.
