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.

Given that Bot. the iPAQ Dat. Messenger and Voice Messenger were spotted on HP’s website last night, we didn’t precisely need a press release to affirm their ascent into officialdom, but hey, we’ll take it. The two WinMo 6.1-powered handsets will soon be loosed on Vodafone in Europe, and starting next month, prospective consumers can buy in for £399 ($677) / £333 ($565) off-contract; Concerning the subsidized rates, you’ll have to hold your horses for those. If you’re just interested in the hands-on video, however, you can mosey on beyond the break and mash play.

Hard to say if we North Americans will ever see this one (without the kind assistance of an importer), but Nokia’s slip-slidin’ 7100s has surfaced overseas. The S40-based handset will reportedly boast a QVGA display, 1.3-megapixel camera, built-in FM radio, multimedia player and a microSD card slot. Additionally, you’ll find a complete dearth of 3G support, tri-band GSM connectivity, Bluetooth 2.0, Opera Mini pre-loaded and a microUSB connector. Look for it to ship somewhere in europ. sometime before the next decade for around 5,000 crowns ($277).
