Once you go touchscreen you never go back? Is that true? It would certainly seem so for Nokia. The company is getting ready to launch a new touchscreen handset for China. Baptized the 6208 Classic, the new phone will work on an S40 platform which will offer you both an interesting touchscreen experience and a very useful alphanumeric keypad.

Here’s what we are to expect from the 6208 Classic:

• 109.8mm x 49.3mm x 14.7mm; 120g
• Tri-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE 900/1800/1900
• 2.4 inch, 240 x 320 TFT touchscreen display, 16-million colors
• 3.2 megapixel camera w/ autofocus, 4x digital zoom and flash
• 13MB of internal memory
• microSDHC support

We have no prices or availability date yet, but who knows if the phone is going to get out of China anyway?
