It’s almost a year since Comes With Music service from Nokia introduced to users in selected countries. Not long after that, Nokia Malaysia has ran short survey in their website (ended recently) looking for Malaysian interest toward musics and little bit of how we spend our money for that.
But since then, I have lost interest with Nokia phone when Apple, Blackberry and Android platform proved to be a better smartphone to have. Only until recently when Nokia come out with Ovi Maps with turn by turn navigation as well as smartphone like Nokia N900 which run on Maemo, I have my sight back to Nokia phone.
Apparently things got more excited. Nokia X6 with Comes With Music service is going to be here very soon or to be more specific this Friday!.
In case you never heard of Comes With Music, it is Nokia service or app that let you download unlimited music to your phone and keep it forever.
And for the phone itself, Nokia X6 is one going to be one of the Nokia’s flagship phone running on Symbian S60. Why? It is Nokia’s first ‘capacitive’ touch screen smartphone, which means, you no longer need to ‘press’ or use your nail or stylus to click/choose something on the screen (unlike resistive). Just like iPhone or Android, ladies and gentlemen..
If you though Celcom’s 50% discount on the brand new Blackberry Bold 9700 is already good enough, read on. Believe it or not, Nokia X6 going to be sale at insanely RM66. You better believe it, but with such ‘crazy’ offer, the unit is going to be very very limited!!. Update: Yes, there are 66 units available. No idea how many units are available with such offer, 1 unit, or 2??
To celebrate the launch of this phone and Come With Music, Nokia is throwing a mini concert featuring band Boys Luv Girl which going to happen Bukit Kiara Equestrian Park this Friday 29-Jan-09. While Getting Nokia X6 for RM66 sound almost impossible unless you’re willing to start queing NOW, but you still have musics to enjoy if you thinking of coming to this event. More info about the event here.
