Espoo, Finland - Nokia today introduced the Nokia 8800 Carbon Arte, a
new premium mobile phone that marries the timeless design of the
Nokia 8800 Arte range with materials that reflect a new exclusivity
based on refinement and authenticity.  Engineered from carbon fibre,
titanium, polished glass and stainless steel, the Nokia 8800 Carbon
Arte is for individuals who appreciate uncompromised high
performance.

Carbon fibre is an ultra light and strong material that expresses a
woven pattern that is both high-tech and sensuous.  Custom built to
ensure the precision engineering that these materials require, the
Nokia 8800 Carbon Arte features 3D patterns that express the inherent
performance and lustre of carbon fibre.

Inspired by the use of these materials in a range of areas, including
architecture, sports cars and aerospace, the Nokia 8800 Carbon Arte
reflects a modern feel through the unique tones, textures and
sculpted shapes that carbon fibre and titanium deliver.

In keeping with the tradition of the Nokia 8800 Arte range, each
detail of the Nokia 8800 Carbon Arte is carefully considered to
enhance the premium value and quality of the device. The minimalistic
and seamless surfaces, slide mechanism and impressive weight of the
phone all feature throughout the Nokia 8800 Arte line.  Also
available on the Nokia 8800 Carbon Arte are soundtracks and
wallpapers created exclusively for the range.

Combining timeless style with superb functionality, the Nokia 8800
Carbon Arte offers the unique tap-for-time feature - consumers can
tap the steel surface below the display twice and a clock appears on
the screen. Background images organically change during the day,
giving a unique appearance to the display.  The turn-to-mute
silencing mechanism allows individuals to silence incoming calls in a
discrete manner by turning the phone over, screen-side down.

In addition to the 3G capabilities and 3.2 megapixel auto focus
camera and high quality audio, the Nokia 8800 Carbon Arte boasts a
stunning OLED display and built-in memory that has been expanded from
previous offerings in the range to 4 GB. Meanwhile, Nokia's
anti-fingerprint coating reduces smudges on metal and glass and
unsightly outer seams are hidden by a unique all-in-one microUSB
connector.

Enhancing the experience, the Nokia 8800 Carbon Arte is delivered
with an exclusive range of accessories. These include a Bluetooth
touch-sensitive volume control headset, a stylish desk stand and a
beautiful leather carrying case.

The Nokia 8800 Carbon Arte will be available in the 3rd quarter of
2008 with an estimated retail price of  EUR 1,100 exclusive of
subsidies and taxes.
