AT&T welcomes the Nokia 6650 in time for the holidays

This small fold device is powered by the nation's fastest 3G network and is styled to help you navigate where you want to go - with a dedicated menu key for AT&T Navigator.

The Nokia 6650 gives you access to tens of thousands of applications for anything from gaming to productivity - so you can make your device truly personal. S60 also has the most expansive set of developer languages available, so running out of personalization choices isn't an option.
