It's got one of the highest-res screens available on a U.S. phone, at 640x360. That may sound like a weird resolution, but it's the same 16:9 aspect ratio as on HDTVs, potentially making the 5800 a good device for recording or watching video.The long, lozenge-shaped phone has a look and interface similar to the Samsung Instinct's: big icons, virtual soft keys at the bottom of the screen, and drop-down menus. The home screen lets you highlight your four favorite contacts and track your history with them by clicking on them, like some of T-Mobile's MyFaves phones do.Nokia changed pretty much everything about interacting with Series 60. In the browser, for instance, you now drag with your finger and double-tap to zoom. (Generally, you single-tap to select things and double-tap to 'click' on them.) There's a much heavier use of big 'shortcut' icon buttons than on any Nokia phone before. A glowing icon on the upper right hand corner of the screen pops out the Media Bar, a set of quick-launch icons for the music player, video player, gallery, Web browser and a Nokia sharing service. The 5800 offers four different kinds of text entry: a landscape QWERTY soft keyboard that takes up the whole screen, a phone-style keypad, a handwriting recognizer and an eensy-weensy, tiny QWERTY keyboard that only takes up part of the screen. That last one requires you to pull out the stylus, but it's a way to enter text while still looking at your Web page. The touch screen is haptic, so the phone vibrates when you press a virtual key. The phone's flagship feature is music support, but its music functions may play better overseas than here in the US and Canada. The 5800 comes with an 8GB MicroSD memory card for storage, powerful stereo speakers and support for protected WMA music, along with unprotected AAC and MP3 music. The top-ported stereo speakers (which point toward the top of the device, rather than the back, where they could be muffled by a tabletop) are quite loud. The phone has a 3.5-mm headphone jack, and also supports stereo Bluetooth. Nokia says the phone will get 35 hours of music playback on a charge. <img src="http://i38.tinypic.com/ok68zr.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />All the interface changes mean that third-party app developers will have to recode their software; Nokia will put out a new SDK for the new Series 60 Version 5 when this phone comes out. The 5800 will sync with Windows Media Player 11, but it looks like it will really come alive when it connects to Nokia's online music store – which Nokia said they're working on bringing here. Right now, the store is available in nine European countries, Singapore and Australia. <img src="http://i36.tinypic.com/21lvbev.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Nokia extends their Web-browsing leadership here with a WebKit-based browser that supports Flash, unlike many other smart phones. The device also has a 3.2-megapixel camera with 640x360, 30-frame-per-second video recording. A second small camera, on the front, lets the YouTube generation make videos of themselves.      <img src="http://i34.tinypic.com/2uqhwxu.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Technical specifications:GPRS    Class 32HSCSD    YesEDGE    Class 323G    HSDPA, 3.6 MbpsWLAN    Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g, UPnP technologyBluetooth    Yes, v2.0 with A2DPInfrared port    NoUSB    Yes, v2.0 microUSBFeatures    OS    Symbian OS v9.4, Series 60 rel. 5Messaging    SMS, MMS, Email, Instant MessagingBrowser    WAP 2.0/xHTML, HTML, RSS feedsGames    Yes + Java downloadableColors    Black, Red, BlueCamera    3.15 MP, 2048x1536 pixels, Carl Zeiss optics, autofocus, video(VGA@30fps), flash; secondary videocall camera     - Built-in GPS receiver- A-GPS support- Nokia Maps 2.0 Touch- Java MIDP 2.0- MP3/WMA/WAV/eAAC+ player- MPEG4/WMV/3gp video player- Stereo FM radio with RDS- TV out- 3.5 mm audio output jack- Voice command/dial- Document viewer- T9- Photo editor- Built-in handsfreeBattery         Standard battery, Li-Ion 1320 mAh(BL-5J)Stand-by    Up to 406 hTalk time    Up to 8 h 45 mi(the above details are based on articles in news.cnet.com, pcmag.com, news.google.com etc )<img src="http://i38.tinypic.com/nytj7s.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></blockquote>
