Nokia 5530 XpressMusic is officially approved by the FCC and is ready for the United States market. Although it does not comes with 3G. Lack of 3G means that the device is ready to sing along AT&T’s network, relying solely on WiFi for decent Internet speeds. Touch-friendly S60 5th edition sits on top of Symbian OS, making sure you can easily (or not that easily) find your way around numerous functions the 5530 XM has to offer. A number of 3rd party apps are available through Ovi Store, allowing for further expansion of the handset’s feature set.
Anyway, now that the FCC has cleared the device for sale in the U.S., we only have to wait for Nokia to bring this magnificent phone to its flagship stores in New York City and Chicago. Alternatively, they may secure a deal with AT&T to eventually spur the sales. We’ll see how that goes.
