Nokia 6600


The Nokia 6600 is a mobile phone introduced on 16 June 2003 by Nokia, costing approximately €600 when released in October 2003. It was part of Nokia's high-end model of the 6xxx Classic Business Series. It runs on Symbian OS 7.0s. It also featured a VGA camera, a music player and video player, Bluetooth and a memory card slot, being the second non-Communicator to do so.
The model was used in many parts of the world and has proved to be a durable product. Many users consider it a trendsetter phone, which proved to be a bright milestone for its manufacturer. The phone was intended to replace the popular 6310i as the predominant business class model in the Nokia range. It should not be confused with the newer Nokia 6600 fold, Nokia 6600 slide and Nokia 6600i phones which have little resemblance to the original 6600. A variant of the Nokia 6600 was launched in the U.S. market as the Nokia 6620.
Nokia reported shipments of over 2 million by February 2004, about four months after launch.

Features

Additional features:
Although the initial batches of the Nokia 6600 were not stable, later system software upgrades corrected the situation.
The phone has the capacity to support the installation of a wide range of third-party software such as mp3 and multimedia players, games, web browsers, office suites, and GUI themes, via Java and ePoc installers. GUI themes can be created using the free Nokia Symbian Theme Studio.
The model was released to the general public in two color schemes: black and white and full black. Additional color schemes were produced for promotional purposes.
In early 2008, Nokia stopped production of the 6600 handsets.
