Nokia announces today that its new 5800 XpressMusic smartphone is now available in the U.S.

The new 5800 is a touch-screen device designed for the mass market, although its unsubsidized price is still $399.

It is being sold through Nokia's Flagship stores in New York and Chicago, nokiausa.com and at independent retailers and e-tailers in the U.S.

Nokia didn't say if it is launching 'Comes With Music' in the United States, but it has said it wants to launch it in the U.S. market this year.

Already available in Europe, the new device includes 8 GB memory for up to 6,000 tracks and support for all main digital music formats. It comes with built-in surround sound stereo speakers.

The device supports Flash content and includes a 3.2-inch screen display.

For a limited time, Nokia is offering a $50 voucher for Amazon Video on Demand and one month of free turn-by-turn voice-guided navigation through Ovi Maps.
