Nokia Asha 303 Price Philippines Php 6,490. Release Date is Today! It's Official!

I've just received word from Nokia Philippines that Nokia Asha 303 is now - as in right this very moment - officially available at all Nokia Stores nationwide.

Everyone's going touchscreen. Why not go Touch and Type?!

Update as of 4:08 PM, November 29, 2011:

I tried calling some Nokia Stores located in Mega Manila earlier to check if they already have the phone. Appparently, this particular model along with Nokia 500 is selling like hotcakes, so they can't promise if a unit will be available once you get to the store. Some stores, on the other hand, are saying that they will get their stocks within a week or so -- just in time for your Yuletide Shopping. I think it's best to ring a Nokia Store first before heading to the mall. Yup, that's how you do it.

And its SRP is a lot less than what I initially predicted, which is always a good thing. This cutie sells for only Php 6,490 -- that's more than a thousand bucks off the projected price! Now, isn't that sweet?!

So if you're looking for a cute Touch and Type handset - flaunting a combo of a responsive capacitive touchscreen, a tactile full QWERTY keypad and a familiar and easy-to-use user interface, Nokia Asha 303 could be the phone for you!
