Well, it seems like folks in Europe (or Spain, at least) already sold on the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic could be in for a bit more than they bargained for, as the phone is at this time listed on Nokia.es for €429 (or just under $550) which, even given the at this time weaker Euro, is Truly a leap from the €279 price for europ. that Nokia first declare just over a month ago. That still gets you an unlocked phone, however, and your choice of red, blue, or black colors, though it’ll no doubt give some folks cause to reconsider the increasingly plentiful touchscreen phone options out there these days.

Along with the change in naming convention comes a change in industrial design, and the C6620 — one of the first smartphones to make use of Samsung’s annoying new one-letter, four-digit scheme — definitely looks a bit different than your average WinMo piece out of Seoul. Italian carrier TIM appears to be the first in the world to offer it, featuring triband GSM along with HSDPA, Bluetooth (we should certainly hope so), and a 2-megapixel camera — not earth-shattering by any stretch, but we’re digging the two-tone thing they’ve got continue in this place. It’s selling for €199 (about $254), which we think makes this (or something very close to it) a perfect spiritual successor to the original BlackJack, yeah?
