Nokia n8-00

Here's the best of what's supposedly coming from Nokia in the first half of the year:

• C5-00:, this is a basic handset with built-in GPS (available June in France).
• C3-00: low-cost S40 with "full keyboard" for those multitasking youngsters with email (July).

Last but not least is mention of the N8-00 (aka, N87 using traditional Nokia naming) - the best Nokia will have to offer in the first half of the year. Scheduled for a summer release, it will feature a 3.5-inch capacitive touchscreen for the new Symbian^3 OS' multitouch and gesture support. It's also said to pack a 12 megapixel camera that grabs 720p/30fps video with HDMI-out to quickly share the events you capture or videos pulled from a new video on demand service rumored for the Ovi store. We can't confirm any of this yet, but we will be meeting with Nokia at Mobile World Congress in just a few days - Monday to be exact - so it won't be long.
