It becomes obvious that smartphones and PDAs have been around a bit when we see new models bearing resemblance to their parents. In the case of the Nokia 5700 XpressMusic, it's obvious that with its twisting form factor and styling, we're looking at the child of the Nokia 3250 and 5300.

This kid is musically oriented, similar to its parents. Like the 3250, the 5700 has a keypad that twists to reveal dedicated playback controls. And Nokia's recently announced smartphone inherits some design cues from the 5300, such as the colored bands on each side.

The Nokia 5700 XpressMusic is set for release during the 2nd quarter of this year. Here are some specs to keep the drool flowing while we wait:

• UMTS and GSM (850/900/1800/1900 Mhz) compatible
• Runs on Symbian S60 3.1
• QVGA color display
• 35MB user memory, 192MB system memory
• MP3 and AAC playback capable, FM radio, dual stereo speakers
• 2 megapixel camera
• Bluetooth (A2DP capable), Infrared, and USB connectivity
• Push-to-talk capable

Will the projected 350 Euro price-tag be worth it?
