The Nokia 6210 now shipping in volumes (September 07, 2000)

Nokia has today announced the availability of the Nokia 6210
introduced at CeBIT 2000 in Hannover, Germany, and at the Nokia
– Designed for Life event in Hong Kong earlier this year. The 
phone supports both High Speed Circuit Switched Data (HSCSD) with
data speed of up to 43.2 kbps and Wireless Application Protocol
(WAP) and is primarily targeted to mobile professionals. 
 
"It is with pleasure that we announce the start of the Nokia 6210
deliveries in Europe. The first units of this WAP enabled new 
Classic category dualband GSM model have started to roll out of 
our factories today, and the phone will be widely available to 
consumers in retail outlets next week. This is the phone of choice 
for a large number of users who have eagerly been waiting for the 
next highly advanced business model from Nokia, after the very 
popular Nokia 6110 and 6150 models," said Anssi Vanjoki, Executive
Vice President, Nokia Mobile Phones, Europe and Africa. 
 
High Speed Circuit Switched Data (HSCSD) will make the Nokia 6210
a perfect tool for retrieving email and having Internet access with
a compatible laptop computer. The Wireless Application Protocol 
(WAP) enables compliant Internet content to be retrieved from and 
delivered to a mobile phone. In addition to public WAP services, 
the Nokia 6210 can easily be integrated in an enterprise's 
information management infrastructure, enabling access to critical
company information such as databases, Intranet and email. The 
Nokia 6210 and the compatible Nokia PC Suite program have a number
of features to assist a company to configure a large number of 
phones with company-specific WAP access points, dictionaries and 
other information. 
 
The size and big display of the Nokia 6210 enable easy operation.
The phone is only 18 mm thick with the standard slim battery and
weighs only 114 grams. The Nokia 6210 connects to a laptop either
via infrared or a cable. The Nokia 6210 has a large dynamic memory
for storing contact information, messages and calendar notes. With
its standard slim battery, the Nokia 6210 has a talktime of 2.5 – 
4.5 hours and a standby time of 55 - 260 hours, depending on, for
example, the network conditions and the SIM card.
