Nokia today announced a way for internet users to interact with some of the web's favorite services while they are away from their PC's, in a pocketable, easy to use device. Nokia N80 Internet Edition brings together wireless LAN (WLAN), a robust browser, support for internet calls, a 3-megapixel camera, and quadband GSM WCDMA coverage along with an easy to use WLAN wizard (to make connecting to the internet easy), and a host of other internet services not previously installed together on Nokia devices.



The Nokia N80 Internet Edition comes loaded with Nokia's new Download! client. Clicking on the Download! folder allows you to see what new applications are available for your multimedia computer, as well as keeping other selected applications current. The fully featured Nokia Web Browser with Mini Map makes browsing the internet easy and you view the web pages just the same way that PC web browsers display web pages.

There is also a local search function in the Mobile Search application, now conviently located on main menu, and find a cool bar, have the device show the place you wish to search on a map, or make one click to call it directly. You can even store address and telephone number directly to your contacts to find the place again next time.

The VoIP framework (based on the SIP protocol) is integrated into the Nokia user interface, and the Nokia N80 Internet Edition is allows for downloading compatible third party internet call applications. The wireless LAN wizard will help you locate and set up a WLAN connection, when you are close to a WLAN, either at home or a public hotspot.

The Nokia N80 Internet Edition comes in two stylish colors, patina bronze and pearl black, and is expected to be available from mid-September 2006.

imo,the N80 is still a better bet than the upcoming n73.Just dont like the lack of wi-fi in the n73 and its keypad also looks very stuffy.If the price is right i might very well consider this.What you say?

I think the only news here is the VOIP client. If this isn't included in the next firmware update I will be on the first plane to Finland.
