Nokia introduced its first big touchscreen phone in London Thursday: the 5800 XpressMusic, formerly known as the “Tube.” While Nokia isn’t positioning the phone outright as an iPhone killer, it certainly shares some similarities of the popular Apple device — and one that really jabs at Apple’s strength: music. While Apple has iTunes and its easy integration with iPhone and iPods, Nokia’s 5800 will rock with the company’s Comes With Music service, which will offer one year of unlimited access all the music in Nokia’s Music Store catalog.
