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).

It was recently announced that Nokia’s Symbian S-60 based Surge will be coming to AT&T on July 19th for $79.99 after a rebate and 2-year contract.

The Surge features a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, 2MP camera, AT&T Navigator and Video Share and a browser that allows for Flash support. Additionally, the Surge will ship with the JuiceCaster app that allows users to update their twitter or Facebook statuses even more pain-free.

So again, Nokia’s Surge will make its way onto AT&T July 19th for $79.99. Anyone interested?
