The Nokia 7260 is a mobile phone for fashionable, busy people on the go who expect lots of advanced features, swish design, and the ease of use that put Nokia on the map. This phone delivers with a unique, standout style that includes a one-of-a-kind wraparound design that will set your mobile phone apart from the usual. Advanced digital imaging capability, PC interface, and programmable status alerts are all features that will appeal to people who want an attractive phone that can really pull its weight.

Along with photographs, the Nokia 7260 can record videos, and the high-resolution, 65,356-color display allows for clear playback anywhere you bring your phone. While the phone is short on memory when compared to similar Nokia models, it does offer easy PC connectivity with Pop-Port or infrared interface, so you can transfer your videos right after you make them.

This mobile phone can also send e-mails, which is handy for uploading your new photos and videos, as well simply being another convenient way to stay in touch. Internet browsing is simple and smooth on this phone; its preinstalled XHTML browser offers enhanced web-support direct to the mobile phone. For those who plan to take lots of videos and photos before they next see a PC, Nokia offers the Kaleidoscope enhancement, which is a digital storage device that’s made specifically for storing and displaying images.

Your go-go lifestyle is a made a little bit easier by the Nokia 7260. This mobile phone allows users to display a status-alert to their contacts. If you’re going to the movies, but want to meet up later at the pub, you can put your mobile on silent mode but at the same time let your friends know what’s going on. For the real jet-set crowd, this phone’s converters include a feature that converts shoe and clothing sizes—so when you’re in Tokyo and picking up some shoes for the girls back home, you’ll be sure to get the right size.
