Wi-Fi Nokia 6136 Cell Phone
Nokia is releasing a new cell phone sometime this spring that will feature Wi-Fi access allowing it to double as a VOIP phone. This handset would likely be a welcome addition to most corporate business users that work in offices with wireless networks.
No word on the expected price of the phone when it hits market, but I would not be surprised to see it sell for over $500 as many phones with integrated Wi-Fi do. I continue to be surprised that cell phone makers include Wi-Fi on their phones.
Unless they come up with a different method of making customers pay for using the phone on W-Fi networks, seems moving users to Wi-Fi could cut their profits. Then again, perhaps Wi-Fi enabled phones show an impending foray into internet calls for some major wireless companies.
