Fido looks like they're set to release another Nokia device. Mobile Syrup has mentioned that the Nokia X2 is headed to the carrier in the future. This handset is said to pack a 2.4-inch display, a 2MP camera, a QWERTY keyboard, and the Symbian OS. It could be launching next week for around $100 contract-free so it's a cheap one.

We heard about it just a few days ago and now we know that the QWERTY-packing Nokia X2-01 will be hitting Rogers. The Canadian carrier should be launching it soon but the price is still unknown. It could be on their prepaid line-up but that's unconfirmed right now.

Yet another handset is headed North of the border and it'll be the HTC Salsa. This handset was officially announced earlier this year and has Facebook integration along with the Android OS. The handset features a 3.4-inch display, a microSD card slot, WiFi b/g/n / Bluetooth 3.0 support, a 5MP AF camera with an LED flash, a front-facing camera, an 800MHz CPU, and Android 2.3 "Gingerbread" with the Sense UI. It's unknown which carrier will be getting this one right now.

Nokia may be a dying brand but they still know how to cater to the low-end market. It looks like they'll be bringing their X2-01 handset to Canada in the near future. This one features a 2.4-inch display, a VGA camera, a microSD card slot, and a QWERTY keyboard for easy text messaging. Check it out on Nokia.

It arrived a day late but it's not a big deal. T-Mobile USA has just released their latest prepaid handset and it's the Nokia X2 which packs a QWERTY keyboard. It's available on the carrier right now (here) for $79.99. The X2 features a 2.4-inch display, a microSD card slot, a 3.5mm headphone jack, Bluetooth 2.1 support, a VGA camera, and the Symbian OS. Pick one up now if you want to.

It looks like the Nokia X2-01 has a shot of hitting North America according to some Bluetooth SIG and FCC filings. The first one is the RM-709 (here) and the second one is the RM-717 (here) which could be the North American model. This should be a cheap one since the FCC filing (here) has quad-band GSM/EDGE connectivity but does not have support for 3G. Specs for this handset include a 2.4-inch display, a microSD card slot, Bluetooth 2.1 (no WiFi) support, a VGA camera, an FM radio with RDS, and a 3.5mm headphone jack.

Yet another QWERTY handset from Nokia is on the way and it's the X2-01. This handset is sporting a QVGA display, Bluetooth support, an FM radio, and a microSD card slot. This is quite similar to the Nokia C3 but should be cheaper since it's missing a few key components. Compared to the Nokia C3, the X2-01 has no WiFi support and a 3MP camera (the C3 has a 2MP camera). Release date is unknown right now but it should be quite affordable.

The Nokia X2 seems to have been spotted at the FCC (filing here). This model seems to be perfect for AT&T in the US and Bell, Rogers, and Telus in Canada since it has GSM / EDGE connectivity. The specs aren't surprising since we already know them. In case you forgot, it has a 2.2-inch QVGA display, Stereo Bluetooth support, a 3.5mm headphone jack, an FM radio, a 5MP camera with an LED flash, a microSD card slot, the Opera Mini browser, and the S40 UI.

In related news, this handset will be available in India this June for €85 ($110 USD).

Nokia has just unveiled their latest inexpensive music phone, the X2. This handset is packing a 5MP fixed-focus camera with video recording so it's a good phone for starters. It also has a 2.2-inch QVGA display, social integration, stereo speakers, music keys, an FM radio with RDS, stereo Bluetooth, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a microSDHC card slot. This handset is expected to launch in June for just €85 ($113 USD) and it'll be available in the two colours you see above.
