The Nokia E7 has been given a possible release date, and more importantly, an early price point.
The new Symbian^3 handset from the Finnish firm will cost around $679 according to Amazon US, which means it will probably be around �500 when it makes the transition over to the UK.
When you consider it's a 4-inch OLED-toting QWERTY device, it's not the worst price in the world, especially when you consider the additional tech on board (HDMI connector, 8MP camera and inbuilt storage).
Stepping up
However, that price point is still going to put it squarely in competition with the iPhone 4, the Nexus S and Desire HD - something the Nokia N8 managed to pseudo-avoid with a much lower price tag.
But if you're still hankering after the new Nokia E7, then at least TheNokiaBlog has good news for you: it seems US retailers are taking delivery of stock around 13 January, so we can imagine a UK release date isn't too far behind.
Nokia has already delayed the release of the new E7 from last year, citing quality control for the user, but given we saw it back in September, the Finns need to get releasing before Mobile World Congress hits and we get a whole slew of new exciting phones to wish we had.
