Pros: new technology you can use it in 120 countries global, very small, voice options.
Cons: too expensive to buy for non business needs.
The Bottom Line: I if you can afford for it, you can buy it. It's the best phone I have ever seen in my life.

| Showme_'s Full Review: Nokia 8890 GSM Cellular Phone |
Techology runs fast so Nokia gave out a new (baby) mobile phone loaded with incredible electronic features. The name? Nokia 8890. The new Nokia has new wireless techonology that you can use the phone almost everywhere in the world, including 120 countries!!!
The new Nokia 8890 has a new chip that makes possible to the phone to change band automatically wherever you are in the world, via satelite transaction, so you don't need roaming or everything else. It has the functionality to speak 3 languages (English, Spanish, French) and operate in over 120 countries, 5 continents (Europe, Asia, Africa, Americas, Australia).
This phone looks like Nokia 8850 (as 88's series),it is very light -about 3oz- has a cover and tiny metalic keys, phone's directory holds up to 250 names and numbers, has calendar, handles multiple calls, supports email and fax sending.
It also supports two GSM bands one at 900MHz and another at 1900MHz, works like wireless modem (tranfer rate depent on your network), has voice dialing sytem with up to 8 voice recordings, you can talk up to 120 - 180 min, and up to 140 hours have it standby. Moreover you can use the Infrared data transfer, internal digital data, download ring tones (as all Nokia phones), picture messaging supported.
Some new things also is the currency converter calculator embeded, auto redial option (up to 10 times), voice message indicator, numeric paging capability (acts like a pager) and it has retractable antenna. Have to admit that it has a solid stable signal, you can hear clearly loud, better than any other Nokia phone.
Well, I thing that this is your phone, if you're a business man and need to travel and work global. In any other way this Nokia (baby) is far too expensive to buy. I had the chance to use it, but I don't even think of buy it (yet). Let's wait prices to fall a litle bit first.
