Nokia lovers rejoice! Last week smartphone stalwart Nokia released its newest candy-bar style smartphone, the Nokia 6220 Classic, a quad-band GSM smartphone with 3G, HSDPA, and EDGE data connectivity.

Microsoft Office users will appreciate that the Nokia 6220 lets them view and edit Office documents, but they may find it a bit frustating to perform those tasks without a QWERTY keyboard on the phone.

One of the most striking features of this new, Bluetooth compatible, Symbian powered smartphone is its 5 mega-pixel camera using Carl Zeiss optics and featuring a Xenon flash, auto-focus ability, video recording capabilities as high as 30 frames/second. It even comes with a second camera to be used for video calling.

And that’s just the tip of the multimedia iceberg for the new Nokia, as it also includes an integrated FM radio, a music player compatible with many different codecs, MPEG4 video-playing ability, and even the possibility of watching regular television on the 2.2” screen.

In response to the widespread popularity of Windows Mobile software and the equally widespread dissatisfaction with how well (or not so well) it's so far been integrated into other companies' smartphones, HTC, the developers of Windows Mobile software, is putting out their own smartphone.

Called the HTC S730, the new smartphone will be an HSPDA phone with 3G capabilities housed in a grey metallic casing with a slide-out QWERTY keyboard. One of the most exciting features of the HTC S730 is that it will be Wi-Fi enabled and able to perform as a modem when a nearby PC or laptop is without one.

But of course, the HTC S730 wouldn't be worth making if it wasn't primed to be the best implementation of Microsoft Windows Mobile software yet, and it shouldn't disappoint with the latest, Windows Mobile 6, installed. The HTC S730 will include:

• Microsoft Office Mobile
• Outlook email
• a calendar
• contact book
• and a whole lot more!
