Because we don't have much better to do, the guys in #mobitopia have been monitoring the Nokia Press page and wow, there's three new press releases several hours early. Matt beat me to the blog, so I'll just copy his summary:

On a whim, I thought I'd take a look at the Nokia press site to see if there would be a webcast for the new phones.  Lo and behold there is already information up about them:

• Nokia 6630: Tiny 3G
• • Series 60
  • WCDMA, EDGE, or old-skool
  • About 500 Euros in Q4 2004
  • 74 megs of memory
  • 1.23 megapixel camera
  • 1.27 grams, 110x60x20.6mm
• Nokia 6260: Series 60
• • VPN
  • Supports the new Nokia Wireless (Bluetooth) Keyboard
  • About 400 Euros in Q3 2004
• Nokia 6170: Flippy
• • EDGE
  • XHTML, MMS, 65k colors
  • About 250 Euros in Q4 2004

I'll get a photo of the Series 60 phones when they comes up.

Update: In the race to post we didn't actually click beyond the first page. ;-). There's actually a lot more being announced including two entry level phones (the 2650 flip phone and 2600), Series 60 "Feature Packs", a Bluetooth Keyboard for S60 phones and more.

Cool!

Update 2: Reuters has the story now. We beat them by 3 minutes. :-)
