Nokia Adds "Light Messaging" to Latest Camera Phone

Nokia unveiled its latest camera phone — the Nokia 3220 — featuring transparent grips which pulsate with light effects to indicate calls, messages, and in sync with the beat of ringtones. By waving the Nokia 3220 from side to side, the LED lights of the Nokia Xpress-on Fun Shell light up to “write” a message that appears to float in mid-air. The Nokia 3220 is a tri-band camera phone that will be available in two versions: a GSM 900/1800/1900 primarily for the European and Asian markets, and a GSM 850/1800/1900 primarily for the Americas. Shipments are expected to start in summer 2004. http://www.nokia.com
