Ch-ch-check it out, y’all! The Nokia Dora in door numero uno! This bad beast is the successor to the Nokia E65. Improving on a bunch of missing features from the original version, you’ll now be able to enjoy things such as GPS and a 3.2 megapixel camera. You’ve also got a front-facing video call camera, Wi-Fi, a quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE radio with UMTS/HSDPA (3G bands are not specified), and you got your standard Bluetooth. Last thing? How about a 320×320 display. Sound good? We’re all looking at a Q2 release, and you can expect to shell out ₤280 for it on Vodafone. As usual, the full goods are after the break!

Strange that it has a 320×320 resolution… usually it’s used for squared screens (like the Nokia Liam - E71)…

320×320 portrait display? That must be a typo. I bet it’s 240×320. If it’s the former then it’s square so portrait is not applicable. Also Nokia has dropped back to 240×320 displays recently (the N90 had a higher, denser resolution for example)

Great scoops, TBG!

I’m very please to see that the three things that let the E65 down are all addressed in Dora (HSDPA, GPS and a better camera).

Let’s hope Nokia manage to sort out the software too!
