Today at the 2009 Consumer Electronics Show, Nokia announced that its E63 messaging smartphone will soon be available in North America. The E63 NAM includes dual-band UMTS (850/1900MHz) and support for 3G networks in addition to quad-band GSM (850/900/1800/1900MHz). WiFi is also included on board for high-speed data transfers.

The Nokia E63 sports a 2 megapixel camera with LED flash. The phone's QWERTY keyboard features a shortcut to use the camera flash as a flashlight, which could prove handy. Also, the E63 is the first Eseries phone to feature a standard 3.5mm audio port.

The Nokia E63 NAM will be available in coming weeks, priced at US$279.00 without contract before taxes or subsidies, in red or blue color schemes.
