With all the excitement around Motorola’s official start in the Android smartphone business we can’t overlook an upcoming Nokia phone. The 2200 has been leaked already and we know it’s going to be an entry-level handset which will bring you simple features like GSM and EDGE connectivity, VGA camera, FM radio, 3.5mm jack and Symbian S40 in the background. The phone will be available in 6 different colors and will cost around $125 but you’ll probably be able to get it for free with new contracts. We have no idea when it’s going to be available but we’ll tell you more once Nokia decides to officially unveil it.

Nokia has revealed that what is the Nokia Surge for the US will go to Europe and the rest of the world as the Nokia 6760 Slide.  The repacked 6760 Slide actually has one major difference compared to the Surge, although with QWERTY keypads, avid SMS/email users are still the focus on both the devices.  Apart from the same 2.4 inch QVGA display, microSD support, Bluetooth, A-GPS, FM radio with RDS, and Symbian S60 3.2 release operating system, the Slide features a 3.2 megapixel camera (compared to the 2mpx lens on the Surge) and European 3G connectivity with support for GSM 850/900/1800/1900 and HSDPA 2100 networks.  The Nokia 6760 Slide will be available in the third quarter of this year across Europe and Asia at a price of 199 Euros (about $285).

The Asus AIRO is a new laptop displayed at CES. What’s so cool about it is the sliding mechanism the moves the keyboard. Simply raise and the keyboard slides back. That means you will get a larger wrist rest and therefore you’re going to become more efficient while working. This is just a concept for now so we have no idea if the laptop is going to be released this year.
