The Nokia 3650 uses GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) technology and the Symbian operating system to power its multimedia capabilities. The 3650 can capture moving or still images and send them to other phones equipped with MMS (Multimedia Messaging) technology, and can display 4,096 colors.

Users can add games and third-party applications written in the Java programming language to the 3650. It weighs 130 grams, comes with 4M bytes of internal memory, and its lithium ion battery can run for 4 hours of straight conversation, or 8 days in standby mode on a single charge. The 3650 also supports Bluetooth, the short-range wireless LAN technology.

It will be available worldwide in early 2003, and is expected to cost €450 (US$446.18), said a Nokia spokesman. The 3650 will be the first Nokia phone with imaging technology to be offered to the laggard North American mobile market, according to the company.

The 3510i also supports Java applications, MMS, and WAP (Wireless Application Protocol). It comes with a calendar, preinstalled Java games, and also operates on GSM networks.

Nokia, based in Espoo, Finland, will make the 3510i available in Europe and Africa during the fourth quarter of 2002, for a price between €200 and €300, with retailers setting the final price, according to the Nokia spokesman.
