Today Nokia unveiled its cheapest color screen cell phone ever, the Nokia 1661. This small candybar cell phone comes in at the entry-level of the market, and features an FM radio built-in and a flashlight, which could definitely come in handy.
The Nokia 1661 features dual-band GSM (900/1800MHz) support, and will be available as the 1662 with dual-band GSM (850/1900MHz), too. The 1661 is set to be available in Q1 2009, with pricing at EUR30 (US$38) before taxes and subsidies. Both models will be available in either black or grey color schemes.
