For AT&T users craving a little Symbian S60 on contract, do we have some stellar news for you. After discovering that the carrier would be bringing the S60-based Nokia 6650 into its lineup in short order, we’ve since seen all the proof we need to keep our hearts fluttering. at this time, AT&T is Makeus all a favor by making things official: the 3G-capable 6650 will land in red and silver tomorrow for anyone who covets, and with it will come a 2-megapixel camera, 2.2-inch QVGA display, AT&T Navigator / Video Share / Mobile Music and a 1.36-inch external display to boot. The pain? $69.99 with a 2-year agreement.

We didn’t see this one on our exhaustive leaked Nokia roadmap, but our homeboy Boy Genius has uncovered pics and specs of a new Nokia flip destined for AT&T. Codenamed “Wahoo,” the quad-band clamshell features an engaging attention half-QWERTY keypad, an internal 2.2-inch QVGA display and a 1.36-inch external unit, push-to-talk, microSD expansion, and A2DP support — which you’ll need because Nokia seems to think a 2.5mm headphone jack is still somehow acceptable. No word on a release date, but if you’re waiting on pins and needles for a phone with a display that small we really can’t help you anyway.

Teardown specialist iSuppli is at it again, digging through the G1’s guts this time around in an effort to wrap its inquisitive brain around the inaugural Android handset’s bill of materials. The result? $144, which naturally doesn’t reflect HTC’s R&D — an additional expense that might have been unusually low for the G1 considering HTC’s overwhelming expertise in manufacturing all things mobile. For the record, this is about $30 less than iSuppli’s July estimate for the 8GB iPhone 3G, though the comparison isn’t terribly fair considering that the G1 has a mere pittance of internal storage by comparison. There’s no telling what T-Mobile pays HTC for each and every G1 it sells, but we pay $179 (or less) on contract — so it seems HTC is making itself a nice little profit right out of the gate and customers aren’t footing much of the bill. At least, not until they’ve gone a few months into their two-year agreements.
iSuppli says T-Mobile G1 costs $144 to make, nothing to love originally appeared on Engadget Mobile on Wed, 12 Nov 2008 13:51:00 EST. Please see our terms for use of feeds.
