When music is on your mind, the Nokia 5500 Sport gives you a jump start. Supporting a multitude of different digital music formats and memory cards of up to 1GB microSD.

A single button serves to activate three dedicated “modes”: phone mode to stay in touch, music mode to unwind or power-up, and sports mode to help you break a sweat. The Nokia 5500 Sport also offers “text-to-speech” technology to read your text messages to you as well as other sports related messages, allowing you to stay focused on the task, or the excercise, at hand. The integrated pedometer feature serves to monitor distance walked or calories burnt -during a busy day in the city or that breathtaking cardio session.

The triband Nokia 5500 Sport (GSM 900/1800/1900) is scheduled to sprint into stores during the summer (3rd quarter) of 2006 and is expected to retail for around 300 EUR before taxes and subsidies.
