SMS read aloud on new Nokia 5500 Sports Phone

46595-1.jpg mobiledia writes up the new Nokia 5500 Sport.

"A single button serves to activate three dedicated "modes" - a phone mode to stay in touch, the music mode to unwind or power-up, and the sports mode to help break a sweat.

But this is my favorite part:

"The Nokia 5500 Sport also offers "text-to-speech" technology so users don't need to take their eyes off the track or magazine. Tapping the 5500 reads the message out loud. In sports mode, the 5500 reads workout status, allowing users to stay focused on the exercise at hand."

Related to music, "the Nokia 5500 Sport can hold approximately 750 songs".
