Nokia Announces CDMA 2608 for Non-US Markets

Humberto Saabedra

Nokia has announced a new CDMA clamshell in the 2608 which is meant for markets outside of the US. The phone features modem access, voice recorder, flashlight, FM radio, LED indicator for an incoming call or message, and an option to send a business card or calendar appointment via SMS.

While Nokia CDMA phones have a history of being outsourced to Chinese manufacturers, the announcement infers that this phone will in fact feature Series 40 support which is inferred by the Series 40 tag in the article byline, although no further information is provided by the announcement.
