N-Gage QD arrives in US

Nokia gives game deck a second chance at success; enlists wide array of retailers to offer rebates.

N-Gage has finally its update, the QD to retail on stores according to Nokia. The new model is a better and more updated version of the original N-Gage which was released in October last year. The new update fixes a number of design flaws that depressed N-Gage's sales. Including the update, the game deck comes bundled with a copy of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater.

The game deck/cell phone hybrid is now available at a slew of retailers, including most EB Games and GameStop outlets and online at EBgames.com, Gamestop.com, Walmart.com, and Buy.com. Almost all are offering the device with either an instant or mail-in rebate (with activation) that brings the QD's price down from an MSRP of $199.99 to $99.99. Currently, T-Mobile is the only carrier that supports the phone, but Nokia says customers will have the option to tap into the AT&T Wireless network "soon."
