Truly momentous for Nokia as they revealed the first ever “dual-SIM” named as C2.
Sibling of C1, C2 is more upgrade than the first in terms of SIM functionality, C2 allows user to use both SIM simultaneously; meaning calls and text messages can be received to either number while the phone is on.

C2 is a wallet-friendly handset costing at around Php2,500 enough to have more features to enjoy for. It has FM radio and music player which can store up to 32gb micro SD cards for spacious music storage.
C2 units will also feature Nokia Ovi Life’s Tool covering information on healthcare, agriculture, education and entertainment.

Handsets will be available in the 3rd quarter of 2010.
Nokia is serious with its push to be make Ovi Maps and their GPS-enabled handsets to be the center-piece of our private cars. This is why they will start shipping selected units of their mobile phones with a free car charger and holder.
That’s on top of Ovi Maps pre-installed on every new handset they roll out the door.
