Nokia launches its cheapest handset

Overshadowing the merger of Nokia and Siemens, Nokia Corp, the world's top mobile phone maker, on monday introduced five new mid-to-low-range handsets , including its cheapest third-generation phone to date.

The new phones - three models for the global market and two exclusively for Asia - are designed to appeal to a mass market audience and strengthen Nokia's appeal among everyday users, the company said.

In Stockholm, the company said that the 6151 handset will be Nokia's cheapest phone with 3G technology, and will sell for about $300 when it is expected to hit the stores during the third quarter of 2006.
