The device will however be shipped with a locked bootloader, preventing ardent Android geeks from doing much tweaking and tinkering with the device. The new handset comes with a 960×540 resolution display and a keyboard with a small fifth row of dedicated number keys. It includes support for GSM / HSPA networks and can accept a SIM for voice and data usage in more than 200 countries across the world. Though the device comes with a front facing camera, it will not be possible to do video chatting using Google Talk unless upgraded to Android 2.3.4 .
