Announced by Frank Vium, Vice President of Sales, Nokia USA, who states that T-Mobile believes that ‘the feature-rich, well-designed Nokia 5310 XpressMusic phone will be well-received with music lovers across the United States, who also appreciate all the functionality of a great phone’ the N5310 will purportedly set you back just shy of $50 with a two-year contract at the time of release next week.
