Nokia’s still-unannounced Tube just got a little more attractive: this new spy shot shows the touchscreen phone’s browser in full effect, serving up websites in full screen loveliness.
The latest shot shows large navigation buttons, and the option to zoom with a single finger, rather than the multi-touch pinching offered by the iPhone.
Sure, it looks a little simplistic, but the browser seems to do a good job of packing a whole webpage on one screen. Compared to previous Nokia phones (N95, we’re looking at you), which forced users to scroll around to see a whole site, it’s a marked improvement.
Now all we need is a release date. Keep it here for more as we hear it.

Yay, a web browser that’s nearly as good as the P800’s! Only 5 years later!
You’d have to have eyes like Bender to make any sense of a website shrunk down like that – at least Opera on UIQ has a damn good go at re-rendering the HTML into a sensible single column.
I’m sure that every last person who’s lost all-but-one of their fingers will be flocking to this phone though.
FWIW I’ve seen an engineering sample and it’s HEEEEEEEEEEEYUUUUUUUUUUUGE – like a longer, wider N95.
“Compared to previous Nokia phones (N95, we’re looking at you), which forced users to scroll around to see a whole site, it’s a marked improvement.”
you can just press “8″ to get the mini version of the site… then move the selector to the area you want and select it to see it closer…
nothing new… haha…
