Cincinnati Bell lands Nokia’s XpressMusic 5800: $149.99
Filed under: Handsets, Nokia, Symbian, GSM, EDGE, HSDPA
Good one, Cincinnati Bell — you totally got us. Oh, wait. This isn’t a joke? For the second time in as many months, the aforesaid carrier has somehow managed to land a white-hot Nokia handset before any other operator in America. This go ’round, the company is becoming the first in the US to offer a subsidized version of Nokia’s polarizing XpressMusic 5800, bringing it to customers in the Ohio region for $149.99. Those looking to do without any strings can procure one for $349.99 (which is still $50 less than what Nokia’s asking), but it’s the bragging rights here that make it all worthwhile. So, how long before a real carrier follows suit?
[Thanks, Adam]
