The Nokia 8208 we mentioned back in February will come out in the U.S. apparently, now that it has cleared FCC. So, yeah, we were wrong.

Nokia 8208 is a dual slider phone that a features 2.2″ screen, 3MP camera, FM radio, A-GPS receiver, and a microSD card slot. We still don’t know which carrier will offer this phone but we are guessing it will be Verizon so you’ll be locked with VZ Navigator.

A couple other features include bluetooth, and a 3.5mm audio jack – you can bring your music on a microSD card up to 16GB.

Nokia 7205 (code named Intrigue) was just announced by Verizon Wireless today. The clam shell device has a 2.2″ QVGA 240×320 internal display, a 1.9″ PMOLED external screen; which stays hidden until lit. Like we mentioned in the title Nokia 7205 does GPS navigation; thanks to the CDMA, 1X/EV–DO Rev. A chip inside which also integrates an A-GPS receiver. You don’t get to use your own GPS navigation system of course. You’ll have to use Verizon’s service called VZ Navigator which costs $10/month for unlimited usage.

Other features and specs of 7205 include a microSD card slot, blutooth, touch sensitive buttons, 2MP camera, and a media player.

Nokia 7205 is already available for only $129 after jumping through hoops and a 2 year contract. If you don’t want a contract; nor interested in chasing mail-in-rebate forms you can expect to pay $300 for the phone.

Nokia 8208 is company’s latest GPS enabled handset coming out of MWC. This is a bit different than the rest though because it also supports CDMA band. However not for Sprint or Verizon though; Nokia is preparing this phone for countries other than the U.S.

Some features of Nokia 8208 are the 2.2″ screen, 3MP camera, FM radio, GPS receiver, and microSD card slot.

Speaking of CDMA, Nokia 8208 will support 800MHz, 1900MHz, and EVDO.

Nokia 8208 is expected to launch in select CDMA markets, in the first quarter of 2009.

Nokia N86 was recently unveiled and here is what you need to know in addition to the pics and videos you’ll see after the jump: read »
