Taiwanese to Get Nokia 5800 XpressMusic for NT$14,900

Nokia has launched its first true touch screen 5800 XpressMusic model for the Taiwanese with a reported price of NT$14,900 (US$446). The price is a bit higher than the expected but as we see with Russia, Spain and Hong Kong, Nokia Tube is likely to be bundled with an exciting offer for the Taiwanese market too.

Nokia is also expected to come up with a Nokia Music Store, Comes with Music service and a Chinese version of OVI service for the Taiwan market in 2009.

According to market reports, it is a strong belief that all country-specific bundle offers will come to an end at the start of 2009 and we can see an almost uniform price of 279 Euros (plus taxes) worldwide, as promised by Nokia earlier. As we wrote earlier, the bundle pack offers may be a short-term strategy to prevent Grey market sales in the holiday season.

We may have to wait for an official announcement by Nokia Taiwan to check out more details on what exciting offer they have on cards for the Taiwanese.
