Worth Reading?
It’s not only Motorola canning in-development handsets: details have emerged of a slick Nokia slider, complete with Prism-stylings and 5-megapixel camera, that made it to pre-production stage but then got cancelled. The unnamed handset has a crystal-finish purple body and Carl Zeiss optics, and looks as though it could have slotted into the company’s Prism range of high-fashion phones.
Exact specifications are a mystery – and all academic, anyway – but much of the functionality is believed to be the same as the Nokia 6260 Slide which was announced last week. What the 6260 doesn’t have is a particularly attractive casing; however it’s possible that Nokia decided the market for a metallic purple slider just wasn’t there in these financially-trying times.
According to Mobile-Review, Nokia judged that demand for the handset was low, and axed further development. It’s likely not to be the last cellphone cut off before it even reaches focus groups.

Oh I cannot believe it, I am searching for a purple-coloured mobile phone from Nokia and saw this picture here at Google. “Yihaaa” I thought, but then I read your text. It will never be released. What a shame, such an brilliant looking mobile phone. Nokia goes fashion – and then took a step backwards. :-(
