Nokia 6208c Touchscreen Phone

Nokia 6208c Touchscreen Phone: This is a stylus-operated phone – the stylus is mounted on the back of the handset and is meant to be inspired by Chinese bamboo tools. It’s an unusual needle shape, with the eye of the stylus wrapping around the camera lens. The stylus is used with the phone’s handwriting recognition software so that Chinese characters can be drawn directly onto the screen, but alternatively they can also be composed on the 6208c’s keypad.

As with most Chinese phones, this is a GSM-only handset, supporting GSM 900 / 1800 / 1900 with GPRS and EDGE data. Talktime is up to 3.5 hours with around 12 days standby time. There’s no word on pricing or availability except that we can expect to see the 6208c sometime during the first half of 2009.
