Cool stuff you can use.: Nokia Asha 210 Specifications

Nokia Asha 210

Nokia has upped its hustle in the low-budget smart phone market and looks set to deal a big blow to Blackberry in the African market in general and Nigeria in particular with its latest offering in the Asha range, the Asha 210 which comes with a dedicated WhatsApp key in the African and Asian versions of the phone. The European and Latin American versions will have a dedicated Facebook key instead of WhatsApp based on its popularity in those regions.

It is becoming clearer that WhatsApp is emerging as a strong threat to Blackberry Messenger which was hitherto the undisputed king of instant messaging in Nigeria.
