Nokia has just launched the most insanely spec'ed Series40 phone to date. The 6260 runs the latest Series40 NokiaOS (non Symbian) and is packed with hardware features typically found in Series60 SymbianOS phones such as :

• Wifi
• GPS
• 5MP Carl Zeiss camera
• HSDPA 10.2 Mbps
• awesome Nokia WebKit Open Source Browser (from Sybmain fame)
• Flash Lite 3
• Stereo Bluetooth 2.1
• microUSB port that's used for charging
• 2.5mm A/V jack with TV-out functionality

AND - something not found on any other Nokia - an HVGA screen of 320x480 (iPhone resolution).

This is truly Series40 history in the making and I hope that HVGA screen becomes standard on mid range Nokias.

That's what cellphone manufacturers do.

Take a low-end phone and gives it nice specs. (6260)
Take a mid-range phone and gives it a touch screen. (5800)
Take a high-end phone and gives it a bad battery. (N96)

Why can't they just make a high-end phone that's up to scratch????

If only we can get a glimpse of what they look like.
