After details of the upcoming Nokia E63 smartphone leaked last week we’ve been waiting for some live sightings of the S60 3rd Edition device.  That’s come courtesy of Mobile Industry Review, who grabbed some hands-on time with the E63 – albeit branded Exx – at the Symbian Smartphone Show.  While there’s no new information here, the device was confirmed as looking ”like an E71, but it’s plastic”.

According to the previous leaks, the E63 will be a 3G HSPA smartphone with WiFi and Bluetooth.  Three versions will be available, two with a 2-megapixel camera and the third, intended most likely for camera-shy industry, without.  Both Euro and US frequency versions are planned, all with a 240 x 320 display and full QWERTY keyboard.

It’s still all-quiet from Nokia in terms of an official announcement or availability date, but considering they’re already toting the E63 – however discretely – around tradeshows it can’t be that far off.  More photos here.
