Nokia as expected today announced the first S60 smartphone with Touch Screen.

Nokia 5800 XpressMusic (and not XpressMedia) aka Tube is finally a reality.
In the same Nokia Remix event in London UK that Nokia announced Comes with Music service and Symbian S60 5th edition Nokia also announced the first device based on S60 5th edition and that is no other than the long rumored, long awaited Nokia Tube.

Nokia 5800 XpressMusic smartphone belongs in the midrange category but once you see the specs you will realize that Nokia sets very high standards for this product and what Nokia describes as midrange surely blows away most of its High-end competitors.

Nokia 5800 Tube Review Videos

Here are some new images of the BlackBerry 9500, known as Thunder, running version 4.7 of the BlackBerry OS. This will be the first touch screen enabled BlackBerry and from the looks of it RIM is trying to further increase their reach into the consumer space by appealing to the multimedia crowd. You can’t really tell how tight it’s going to be by just these few pictures, but hey, someone out there is going to use this as flame bait in an online forum. The screen has a 480×360 pixel display and the key selling point is that it will tie into an operators’ existing music store offering.

The BlackBerry Thunder will also feature a portrait media player for watching movies and videos taken with the handset. Well that’s it for now…
