Unboxing the Nokia 7705 (Twist)

What? Another CDMA phone from Nokia? Madness!

Behold the Nokia 7705 (Twist), a feature phone with a QWERTY keyboard and an ultra cool swivel form factor that's exclusive to the US market (Verizon).

Like the Nokia 6790 (Surge), it's primarily a messaging device. Contrary to the Surge, it's not running Symbian, which is FoF (*).

Sure, there's 3G (EVDO), a 3 megapixel camera (with auto-focus, flash, and QVGA video recording), GPS, and a 2.4" QVGA display.

But unfortunately, WiFi is missing, the audio connector is of the 2.5 mm variety, the battery is only 860 mAh, and there's no Java support, which is again FoF (*).

(*) Full of Fail.

Oh well - enjoy my pictures and video :)
