Nokia 5500 sport engineering from running shoes

Nokia announced yesterday a smartphone with a six-pack, the Nokia 5500 has a single button to activate three dedicated modes: normal phone, music mode and the sports mode to help you break a sweat.
So what does the sporty model actually do to help you whilst running?
“Text-to-speech” technology. Don’t take your eyes off the track or that magazine, just tap the Nokia 5500 Sport and the message is read out to you.
Switched into sports mode, the Nokia 5500 Sport helps you keep track of work or your work-out. The integrated pedometer feature serves to monitor distance walked or calories burnt -during a busy day in the city or that breathtaking cardio session
For extra durability, the Nokia 5500 Sport features an ergonomic stainless steel casing, complemented by a splash and dust resistant shell and rubber grips.The sleek Nokia 5500 Sport is engineered with materials used in the latest high performance running shoes which make it look good on and off the court.
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.
So if you want a phone to watch those calories and is made from the same material as your trainers, this is the phone for you!
