nokia site says first quarter. i'm gonna buy it, and i heard the end of february. how much is the real question tho....

I purchased the N6220 for about $500 on ebay, a month before it's release worldwide.

I'm hoping this one will be a lot cheaper.

Really hope so too,... but i really doubt it,.. 6230's a much better phone compared to 6220 and it just doesn't seem like it's going to be any cheaper,... and it's the 1st s40 with a VGA cam so far (when it's released)...

Well. N6220 was about 380$-400$ when released, I was just too excited and didn't mind paying the extra 100$ to get the CSL version [ they had a contract, nokia supplied the first EDGE phone to that network, which is this one...before it's worldwide release ]

I'm hoping for a 450$. I'll pay that much, it's one hell of a phone, the 6230 and I'm sure getting one myself

Scakurs, what's a CSL?
The best spot for the 6230 would be around $400. Any higher, all the fellows would contemplate buying a 6600 instead.

CSL is a provider in hong kong, one of the first ones to ever implement a fully edge compatible network.

CSL is GSM, right?

Of course.

GSM/EDGE technology.

Like GSM/GPRS. EDGE It's just a faster transfer rate

Ok, so now what's BREW?

the 6230's MMC capability is its biggest drawcard i feel, coupled with mp3 capability and stereo output; its a dream


does anyone know if it will accept ANY MMC card sizes?? as in, replace the 32mb one that it comes with, with a 256MMC card? That means its better then most mp3 players u can buy atm, besides iPods of course

Not only MMC, it also supports TCP IP, and even Multitasking.
The 6230 poses a direct threat to the SonyEricsson T630 and WILL win easily.

It's got an impressive feature list. It has 6MB direct comparison to the 6600. I say that 6600 is dumb, and unclassy in front of 6230.

The final war will be: 6230 vs T630

I agree. Nokia 6230 it's one of the most complete phones I've seen when it comes to features.

Design could be improved [ not really a die hard fan of it ] but then again...it's not that bad looking.

Edit: Ski, CPF Money: $6263, now that's some CPF money. Damn

True, but if it was designed like the 6610 or a better variant, then it was a sure-shot killer phone. What more could you expect with features matching the 6600 and looks matching the 6610, it would be the perfect combination. But maybe there must have been space restrictions, thus they went for such a design.

EDIT: My money hopes to rise higher.(howabout $20000)

the nokia 6230 , is a perfect phone !
the only problem that it has IMO , it is the memory ( we don't know how much xactly u can add , up to 256 MB will be great )
and the 2nd problem is , why only 128 limit to application ??!!?!
it's stupid i think , why to limit it ?
