The register has just posted this story about two new Nokia communicator phones that will be launched in the Uk. What is interesting about these phones is that they come with WiFi and VOIP functionality built in. This is not going to please the Uk network operators as it allows users to bypass their network and make calls for free or place international calls using their data tariffs. The E90 will replace the Series 80-based 9000 range offering a full keyboard and wide display.

Nokia's E61i due for a facelift

This is definitely good news for consumers, with one of these new Nokia phones and a coffee shop that offer's WiFi access you could make a Skype to Skype call to India for free. Or you could use your data plan to make a SIP call via a VOIP provider like VOIPTALK.

The nokia 2610 is a great phone if you just want a phone that makes calls and are not very good at remembering to charge your mobile as it has a claimed battery life of 12 days standby or 3 hours talk time.

It doesn't have a camera or bluetooth and it's cheap, £60 buys the version that can be used with all the major networks in the UK, and Orange do a version tied to their network for £40 pay as you go. The screen is clear but difficult to see in direct sunlight. It has a Built-in hands-free speaker which is important when driving in the UK.
