Nokia 5030

The Finnish-based company said the 5030 is one of its most affordable devices to offer an FM radio.

The XpressRadio feature includes an internal FM antenna, a built-in loudspeaker, and dedicated music keys for finding radio stations.

Ideal where people rely on a radio as their main source of entertainment and news, the phone has up to a day of listening time and 10 hours of talk time.

Available in graphite and red colors, the Nokia 5030 will begin shipping in the second quarter of 2009 priced at less than $50.
