Ultra- Compact Form
# SAO PAULO, Brazil, Sept. 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Nokia (NYSE: NOK - News) today announced the Nokia 6560 phone, the world's smallest and lightest TDMA handset with color display and dual band functionality. Weighing only 3.1 ounces, the Nokia 6560 phone is a small and sleek mobile phone optimized for balancing work and family life. It has a large high quality color display and enlarged keypad optimized for messaging. The advanced feature set of the Nokia 6560 further includes Java(TM) technology, XHTML browser and data connectivity via infrared, continuing a tradition of Nokia leadership in the TDMA market. Shipments of the Nokia 6560 TDMA 800/1900 MHz / AMPS handset are expected to begin during the 4th quarter of 2003.(Photo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20030912/DAF002A )
To allow users to personalize their phone, the Nokia 6560 phone includes on-screen wallpapers, user changeable Xpress-on(TM) front and back covers and high-fidelity MIDI ringing tones. With support of Java technology, users can further customize their phone by downloading new services and applications such as games or productivity applications to the phone using the built-in XHTML browser.
User-defined profiles allow for the audible and tactile alerts of the phone to be adjusted for the environment that the phone is being used in. Caller group function enables the management of incoming calls, while features such as predictive text input, a high quality color display, selectable font sizes and an integrated hands free speaker enhance the usability of the phone.
"The Nokia 6560 is the smallest and lightest TDMA phone with large color screen and it offers a full set of latest features for users to manage their business and personal life," said Pekka Vartiainen, senior vice president of Nokia Mobile Phones, Americas. "This handset clearly demonstrates Nokia's continuing commitment to the TDMA market."
Advanced voice features of the Nokia 6560 include voice memos, voice dialing and voice commands. The unique Nokia Pop-port connector allows for a full range of accessories such as an FM stereo radio headset. The phone also supports connectivity to a TTY device for hearing impaired users.

According to this Nokia specifications page it is 4.16 inches long x 1.73 inches wide x 0.75 inch thick which translates to 105.7 x 43.9 x 19mm. So while it might be the worlds smallest TDMA phone it is not smaller than the other phones mentioned.

I wonder why people are so obsessed with smallness, anyway?
Are we all a bunch of teenage girls, with mini handbags!? |

although i see what you are trying to say about the small cell phones i really think that the size of my t68i its the best size for a phone ... probably you wont agree with me but i really dont think that small phones are easy to use (presing the buttonīs or sending sms ... )
Unfortunately, no one can be told . . .

when the antenna is included, the t66/T600 should be the smallest.
I don't know why the antenna is always left out in measurements, because it is always there.
Small phones are nice when you always have it with you. Especially the weight is very important if you don't want your clothes to "hang". |

I guess the smallest fone are really that of the PANASONIC!!!! at present, and there's no doubt about it!!! But dating back for about 3 years, I guess the MOTOROLA fone co. came out with small ones too, like that of the "V"(2/3/8) series w/c is still in demand in Manila at present considering the presence of the colored fones. |
