T-Mobile and Nokia tend to get along well. Though the carrier may not offer the fanciest Nokia models around, you can count on it to have at least a couple of Finnish phones in its lineup.

The 1680 is the latest T-Mobile Nokia handset. The candy bar design is simple and straightforward. Features include a VGA camera, a speakerphone, messaging, Web-based e-mail support, and personal organizer applications. The 1680 is $59 if you pay full price, but it's just $14.99 with service.
