Nokia 2710 Navigation Edition Gets Official

The Nokia 2710 Navigation Edition is not the smartphone you are waiting for the Finish mobile manufacturer to launch. Instead, it’s a simple candybar phone that’s capable to help you find your way no matter where you are. Nokia has made it official and we have just the specs and features your were looking for.
The phone comes with GPS support and Nokia Maps so in case you do get lost while you’re travelling the handset could definitely get you back on track. The phone will not surprise you with any spectacular features as it comes only with a 2.2-inch QVGA display, a 3.5mm headset jack, Bluetooth 2.1, stereo FM radio with RDS, 2-megapixel camera and an included 2GB card in the box.
According to Nokia the new 2710 Navigation Edition is the company’s “most affordable Nokia Maps loaded, GPS-enabled phone.” Nokia expects the phone to be popular both in developed and in developing countries as the phone has been conceived for “urban environments, small towns, as well as rural areas in mind.”
If you already like the phone then you won’t be happy to hear that the 2710 Navigation Edition is not going to be available in time for Christmas. The phone is expected to arrive at some point in the second quarter of 2010 and it’s going to cost €110 or around $165. Although it sounds a bit too expensive for its capabilities, the handset is coming together with a car holder and a car charger which means you should have no problem mounting it in your car.

So what do you say? Would you get a GPS-enabled Symbian phone? Or would you rather go for an Android or iPhone instead? Symbian isn’t too hot right now so I’ll totally understand if you’d rather choose something from the competition to satisfy your GPS needs.
