5800 goes Chrome (no, not in the Google sense).
Nokia is looking to kickstart demand for its Comes With Music service in the UK in partnership with T-Mobile, which has announced plans to sell a special edition handset.
It's the same old 5800 touchscreen phone, but now in Chrome. It goes on sale on 1st November, and will be free on a 24-month £30-per-month contract.
However, there are strings attached. The Comes With Music subscription only lasts for the first 12 months of that contract.
Thereafter, T-Mobile says users will have to pay for any new downloads from the Nokia Music Store, although they'll be able to keep all the tunes they downloaded in the first year.
"The ability to download all the music you love, plus explore new songs and artists free and legally from the Nokia Music Store on this great value T-Mobile tariff will change the way people collect and listen when on the move," says Nokia UK's MD Mark Loughran.

Well, for the first half of their contract, at least. If operators are going to offer Comes With Music phones on two-year contracts, you'd think they'd have figured out a way to stretch the unlimited music offering that far too.
