Nokia 6260

Nokia (Finland) invented the cellphones,and always will be step or two ahead other brandnames. This phone speak for itselfs....

Okay, so I have a million questions about this phone.

First off, I have Cingular, and apparently the only way a phone will work is if it's 850/1800... I remember that it has to be 850 in the beginning. I live in South NJ, if that helps anybody.

So the problem is, supposedly there is an 850 version, but I can't find that anywhere. And everybody thinks this phone is going to be picked up by Cingular, so if everybody is so sure about that, why won't they say that on any website?

And, finally, does anybody have any idea when this phone is coming or what's holding it up so much? Is it the push-to-talk?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hopefully nextel and verizon will caryy the phone cause i really want it and i dont want to switch carriers

I work for Cingular and a guy that works for Nokia recently came in to ask how the Nokia 6230 (GREAT phone) was doing in terms of sales. So I told him. Afterwards, he says "Want to see my new toy? Just got it a few days ago." He pulls out the 6260. The thing is fcucking HUUUGE!! Well, it's not the size of my mom's ass but the thing is WAAAAAAAAAY bigger than I expected. The picture here is VERY misleading. He said he had it imported from Nokia in Europe. When he opened it, it was VERY VERY VERY nice. It has PTT. He showed me how that works. It's a REALLY nice, feature-rich phone. But the thing is HUMONGOUS.

I have some general questions before I buy this phone and hopefully one of you can help me. I wanted to know how to download mp3 ringtones onto it and what other features does it have that makes it special. I am switching from a moto V710 and from verizon to cingular because of the whole recall issue and their customer service. I have been waiting for 2 months for a "proper" replacement and they have had me waiting. Please get back to me. Thanx.

I bought the phone and am using with cingular service.

Does anyone know how to use VPN, Push for Talk features? Also how do you connect to Cingular's site from the phone.

Ok, I've just started looking into this. This phone looks like exactly what I'm looking for. I'd like to go with T-mobile for my carrier. If the phone supports 850, 900, 1800 and 1900, why couldn't I get a sim card from t-mobile and drop it in an unlocked 6260? Or any 1900 GSM unlocked phone?

Thanks

it's class 6, means it's 36:12k=dl:up
and no EDGE support
if you want to use this as modem, consider another model

WHAT GIVES? 😢

the phone is on sale on snd cellular, inc for $550! The phone looks HOT! I want to see it in person thou!

Does this phone have a touch screen? How do you input information besides the keyboard? Does the new Nokia 6670 introduced today Have a touch screen?

Nokia never ceases to surprise me! 😁

I looked from every angle but cant seem to find the camera ... I see the little sign on the side but seems to me that its ganna be an adaptable camera ? Does anyone know ?

How much will the phone cost?

🙂 🙄 🙂 🙄
im really confused because the phone comes out this month but wot day?
🙂 🙄 🙂 🙄

My friend has a Nokia and I was about to get one too until I saw this phone. I really like ALL the features on the 6600(camera, video, infarad, bluetooth, speakerphone, mp3,...ALOT MORE). Can anyone please tell me if there is ANY FEATURES that this one lacks compares to the 6600? Thanks

All,

I am currently using a Sony Ericsson K700i, and I have found that it has a limited SyncML capability. Basically what happens is that when I do a sync (either using Sony’s software, or native Bluetooth PIM Sync) my Outlook information is transferred over only partially. For example, my meetings will not have full subjects, or bodies, and my address book info is limited to phone numbers and a single line in the notes field.

I am curious if the 6260 has a more robust sync ability, like the SE 910.

Please advise,

Thanks.

That should be cool if they work together. Nokia should have made a flip-phone a long time ago. That is the only reason I don't have a Nokia now. I tried the 3650 when it came out, but even though it had great features it was like carrying around a universal remote control.

First I wanted the Kyocera 7135(too expensive), then the Moto V600(needs video record), then the V710(Verizon instead of AT&T), and now this one. I hope they come out with it soon before something else shows up. 😕
I've had AT&T for years and want to stay with them. 😁 This phone has most of the features I am looking for, I just hope I don't give in and switch to Verizon for the V710. 😳
I guess the reality is that there will always be another good phone over the horizon just daring 😈 someone to wait for it.

disclaimer: nothing against Verizon, I am just happy with AT&T.

There's a wee little space between that black carbon-fiber-esque panel and the hinges.. ☹️
