Redmond, Washington and Irving, Texas, ( July 9, 2003 )- AT&T Wireless (NYSE: AWE) and Nokia (NYSE: NOK) today announced the immediate availability of the Nokia 6800 messaging phone, which can be purchased through the AT&T Wireless web site (www.attws.com) or at participating retail locations.

The phone, optimized for messaging, features flip access to a full QWERTY keyboard for quick and convenient text input.

The Nokia 6800 phone (GSM/GPRS 850/1900MHz) operates on packet data GPRS networks for high-speed data connectivity and fast delivery of e-mail from POP3 and IMAP4 servers. Additionally, the Nokia 6800 comes pre-configured with an e-mail application for access to mMode Mail, and supports XHTML browsing for access to on-line mMode content, and *Java(TM) technology for downloading new applications. Users can install new applications over the air via mMode.

This messaging phone also offers speakerphone and voice recorder capabilities, as well as rich PIM functionality including contacts, calendar and to-do list which can be synchronized with many popular PC programs using the Nokia PC Suite available for free downloaded from www.nokia.com.

"By combining the capabilities of the Nokia 6800 messaging phone with AT&T Wireless' mMode data plans, on-the-go professionals can have mobile access to e-mail, contacts, calendars and business-oriented applications," said Jake Sagehorn, director and general manager at Nokia Mobile Phones' Business Applications unit.

For as little as $2.99 a month plus usage charges, AT&T Wireless customers can add mMode and get dozens of ways to stay connected to the people and things they care about. With mMode they can e-mail friends, check the latest news or sports scores, get driving directions, see if their flight is on time, or play a Kung Fu game, among many other possibilities.
