Nokia, together with T-Mobile just announced the new Nokia Nuron 5230. As you remember, we told you first about this phone coming to T-Mobile and we also got the first official pictures of the Nuron.

“The Nokia 5230 Nuron is a great product of our collaboration with T-Mobile USA and provides consumers with more compelling mobile experiences as they navigate, watch video, play games and social network,” said Mark Slater, Vice President, Sales, Nokia. “The Nokia Nuron offers U.S. consumers a unique and compelling mobile experience that caters to their everyday needs and enables them to connect to their passions with an affordable 3G touch smartphone.”

The Nokia Nuron is the first U.S. carrier -supported Nokia smartphone to pre-load Ovi Maps, a solution from Nokia that offers consumers free turn-by-turn directions and navigation. Additionally, Ovi Maps makes it easy to discover great places to eat, concerts, movies and more with Lonely Planet guides. Other features include the ability to check the weather forecast and even share one’s current location on Facebook. With pedestrian navigation, Ovi Maps delivers the best routes through pedestrian zones and shortcuts as well as pathways through parks and buildings. Exploring the world or rediscovering your own city has never been easier or more fun with Ovi Maps.  Nokia Nuron also comes preloaded with maps for the USA, Canada and Mexico – with the ability to access over 180 country maps at http://www.nokiausa.com/maps.

As we told you before (btw, we were the first ones to tell you about this phone) T-Mobile is launching this March 17th. Here we have the first official pictures of the Nokia Nuron 5230 Xpress Music. This is a mid entry touch screen phone that supports 3G (HSDPA) bands, aGPS  (compatible with Ovi Maps 3.0), 2MP camera, and more.  If you like touch screen and Symbian OS  phones, this is the right device for you, but you have to wait until March 17th. This phone will come in white, but we believe will come in other colors too.

Greenpeace has elaborated a list of the technology manufactures more green and shown them at CES in las Vegas.

Nintendo Microsoft and Lenovo are the least brands that respect the environment, while Nokia together with SonyEricsson are the greenest one. Apple is the company with a better progress, jumping from the 9 to the 5 position. Not too good for Samsung jumping from the second to the seventh position. bad bad samsung… good think I did not get the Behold 2.
