FCC gives nod to Nokia 6500

August 23rd, 2007

The FCC has just approved the Nokia 6500 slider handset, which means you can start saving up for one today. It will come with an impressive 3.2 megapixel camera featuring Carl Zeiss optics (just like the N73), with the addition of a TV-out jack (video calls on your TV are now possible!), a microSD memory card slot, Push-to-Talk, and a USB interface for data synchronization (and simultaneous charging when plugged in at last). The 2.2″ QVGA display is nothing much to write home about, but TV-out would be the main attraction of this slider. Heck, you can even check your email on-the-go with this baby thanks to the full fledged email client and IM application on the 6500. No idea on which carrier it will be available from though, but it will make an appearance this Q3 for €370…
