Three new Nokia devices destined to AT&T

The Memorial Day phone fun continues with three new Nokia handsets, apparently destined to AT&T at some point in the future.  Out of the four devices, dubbed "Grouper," "Mako," "Snapper," and "Thresher," several of them take on completely new designs for the manufacturer.  The Mako, for example, offers a sliding form factor with a full QWERTY keyboard, 2.4-inch QVGA display, A-GPS, 2 megapixel camera, Video Share, and 128 MB of internal memory.  Despite its small size, it features S60 (3.2) just like the E71.  According to the team at Engadget Mobile, the phone was targeted for a June 5th release, but they're betting that it will be pushed back due to the lack of news surrounding it.

The Thresher also represents a new design shift for Espoo, offering a glossy slider form factor.  Both it and the Grouper (also referred to as the "Mural," which we covered here) will offer HSDPA and are rumored to be available in September and July, respectively.  Additionally, the Thresher features a 3.2 megapixel camera, whereas the Grouper offers a 2 megapixel one.  Last but not least, the Snapper is a low-end flip phone offering HSDPA, Bluetooth 2.1, A-GPS, and a 2 megapixel camera.  The Snapper is rumored to launch in August.
