MANILA, Philippines - Nokia has announced the availability of the Nokia 206 Dual SIM in the Philippines, the ideal phone for those who want familiarity and ease of use, coupled with beautiful design and all the benefits of the mobile Internet.
The Nokia 206 Dual SIM features a classic alphanumeric keypad and a 2.4-inch display, giving ample room to surf the Internet, play games and chat with friends. Users can also enjoy fast access to Facebook and Twitter right from the home screen.

It also features Nokia Nearby, a Web app that helps consumers discover points of interest such as restaurants, shopping malls and ATMs close to their location.
