When Nokia (NYSE: NOK) engineers were tasked with designing a sleek, fold-style handset that did not compromise on quality, ease-of-use, style or features, they took up the challenge and delivered a product that changes the conventional wisdom that a slim phone cannot be as powerful as it is beautiful. Today, Nokia unveils the result of this engineering challenge, the quad-band (GSM/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900) Nokia 6126 phone. Featuring a graceful tapered design that averages a mere 17mm (.67 inches) from top to bottom, it still manages to deliver a wide range of the most desired mobile features which are easily accessible via Nokia’s hallmark intuitive user interface. The Nokia 6126 phone is expected to be available in North American markets during the 2nd quarter of 2006.
