The Nokia X3 was announced at Nokia World 2009 back in September but everything has been a little quiet about this entry-level X Series device since then. This 2.2-inch device has been largely over-shadowed by the more impressive Nokia X6. However, it looks like the Nokia X3 will soon be getting a release State-side as it's just popped up on the FCC. Find out how the Nokia X3 has geared up for the US market after the jump...

Before any electrical device can be released in the US it needs to go up before the the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) and be approved and this is exactly what's happened with the Nokia X3, as it has now popped up on the FCC site with full approval. You can check out the full FCC application for the Nokia X3 here.

If you like trawling through the FCC then you'll find images of the phone, both internal and external, as well as the user manual and test reports.
