Nokia unveils new trio of handsetsNokia recently announced three new handsets which feature innovative materials used in their design, among them the premium 8600 Luna slider with smoked glass cover over its keypad.
How did the Luna name come about? According to Nokia's senior VP of Mobile Phones, Heikki Norta, "much like the Nokia 8600 Luna that we named in her honor, Luna, the goddess of moonlight, was often represented by the Romans as a mysterious captivating beauty encircled in a soft, yet radiant light".
The 6500 slide, on the other hand, is the more feature-intensive of the two. It comes with a 3.2-megapixel camera (with Carl Zeiss optics, autofocus and dual LED lights), TV-out, 2.2-inch display, FM radio and microSD card slot. It also features a brushed stainless steel casing which Nokia claims can protect the handset against scratches and fingerprints. In Asia, both the 6500 models are expected in the third quarter of this year, while the 8600 Luna is slated to debut before the end of the second quarter of 2007. | ||||||||

I basically need my new mobile "toy" to do the following functions: emails, sms, calendar/ appointments, adobe photoshop, powerpoint slides, take some good clear pictures (occasionally, and video would be a plus) and access the internet on wifi.
What would you recommend.
