UPDATE 1-3 UK to sell Nokia’s N95 music phone-source

* 3 UK to sell Nokia's N95 Comes with Music phone - source

LONDON, (Reuters) - Mobile operator 3 UK is to sell Nokia's (NOK1V.HE: Quote, Profile, Research) N95 Comes With Music handset which offers unlimited music downloads, an industry source told Reuters on Tuesday.

Both 3 and Nokia declined to comment.

The Comes With Music service will first go on sale in Britain on Oct. 16 via a pre-paid 5310 Xpress Music phone, and the monthly contract N95 will be supported and sold by 3 from next month, said the source, who had direct knowledge of the plan.

3 is owned by Hutchison Whampoa (0013.HK: Quote, Profile, Research).

The move to sell music as part of a phone package is a new offering from Nokia and analysts had said that it would struggle unless operators agreed to support and sell the phone with a monthly contract over their networks.

Many see the offering as a direct challenge to Apple's (AAPL.O: Quote, Profile, Research) hugely successful music service iTunes.

N96 too much like N95 retail staff say

Customers are disappointed with the Nokia N96

Nokia’s flagship phone, the N96, is not taking the market by storm as had been hoped by the handset manufacturer, retail staff reveal.

The most common criticism that staff in high street stores hear from customers is that the N96 is too similar to the N95. According to a Vodafone saleswoman, customers are bringing back the phones saying they would rather stick to their old N95s.

T-Mobile shops have heard similar feedback. ‘People say it looks too much like the N95, the only difference is that it has more memory,’ a T-Mobile saleswoman said.

According to sales staff, the price of the handset is also a problem. One Carphone salesman said: ‘The deals are not great ... as soon as the deals get better they’ll fly.’

‘The cost is outrageous,’ the T-Mobile saleswoman agreed. The handset is sold for £49.99 on a £40 per month tariff at the operator, while Carphone offers it free on a £35 per month tariff on O2 and Orange.

Nokia 7100s (Supernova) details emerge

Nokia’s range of basic phones will soon welcome a new member, in the incarnation of Nokia 7100s.

The 7100s is a little slider designed in the same manner as the Nokia 6710, which, with its 3.2 MP camera, can be seen as the Supernova flagship phone. That’s why the new 7100s might actually be officially released as Nokia 7100 Supernova.

Nokia 7100s, or whichever its name will be in the end, looks cheaper than the 6710 and has fewer features, so it will probably be first outed in emerging markets.

Here is what the phone looks like:

The specs of Nokia 7100s are said to include:

Symbian S40 UI
Tri band GSM/EDGE (900 / 1800 / 1900) connectivity
QVGA TFT display with 262K colors
Music player
FM radio
Bluetooth 2.0 & USB 2.0
Opera Mini browser, email
Flash Lite 2.1.1 support
1.3 MP camera
MicroSD card slot

Nokia 7100s (or Nokia 7100 Supernova) should have a retail price of about $280, although for the moment there are no clear details regarding its release.
