Nokia has dropped some phones. The pictures above are the 5220 – the 5320 isn’t as cool-looking, but sports 3G and "Web 2.0 access," of which I am inexpressibly skeptical. It’s expandable to 8GB of room for music, and also can be used in landscape mode for games, though I fail to see how that works, as there are no buttons by the screen. Both are of the “XpressMusic” variety, the software for which I’ve heard is pretty decent.

The 5220 looks like a better deal for a basic, tiny music phone. It costs 60 euros less, looks cooler, and the only things missing are the parts you’re never going to use from the 5320.
