Nokia today announced the second iteration of its N-Gage gaming device - the N-Gage QD. Key differences compared to the original N-Gage include a lower price tag, smaller size, an easily-accessible hot-swap card slot for games, and a "reoriented ... speaker and microphone to support 'classic talking'." Other upgrades include longer battery life, improved gaming controls, and a brighter screen. The GSM 900/1800 version will be released next month, with a GSM 850/1900 variant for the Americas to follow in June. The unit is expected to retail for $199, or $99 subsidized with a contract.

Hands-On Review

Looks like my buddy Howard got his hands on one already, and just published a preview. It includes a photo of it next to an original N-Gage for size comparison. It's smaller than you might think. 😎 Check it out:

FCC Approval

The FCC approved this a few days ago, but Nokia (being the smart guys they are) withheld any (all-important) attachments until literally within an hour or two of the official press release.

There's only a couple docs posted so far as of this writing, but assuming there will be more... for the technical folks who savor FCC PDFs... enjoy:
