Nokia Dual-SIM C2-06 leaks Touch and Type accidentally

The first dual-SIM member of the Nokia Touch and Type family has just made its unexpected public debut. The Nokia C2-06 (or C2-02 according to some sources) appeared on the Nokia Conversation blog, starring on an image dedicated to the IPv6 transition of the company's OVI browser.

As you can imagine, given the nature of the leak, there were no phone specifications mentioned, but this image is more than enough to confirm the existence of the handset.

Before this confirmation, there was always the chance that the leaked prototype we saw earlier was just a dead project that will never see the light of day. Well, it's not.

Now this "accidental" appearance of the unannounced C2-06 could be either a PR move by Nokia attempting to generate more interest to the Ovi browser article, or just an honest mistake, but whatever it is, we are sure the dual-SIM fans around the world will be glad it happened.

It was only recently, that we saw the first Dual SIM phones by Nokia, the Nokia X1-01 and C2-00, finally ship.

Nokia C2-06 available on official websites

We just spotted the rumoured Nokia C2-06 in a official blog post about IPv6 on the Nokia blog. The handset was leaked in April with pics and is rumoured to be a S40 Touch and Type Dual SIM phone from Nokia.While the source does not talk about the device , the phone in the image has the letters C2 on the top left confirming previous rumours. We reviewed the X3-02 which is the first Touch and Type phone from the handset maker.

With Nokia committing to launch more dual sim devices to take on the competition , such a handset can do a lot of good for the company.Are you excited about the C2-06 ? And the handset looks a lot more attractive than the ugly looks in the earlier pics.
