Commemorating the 35th anniversary of The Godfather, Nokia today hoped to appeal to movie buffs with the N73 Godfather Edition. Its bar-shaped smartphone includes a complete copy of the Coppola film at the native resoluion of the N73's 2.4-inch screen, which successfully fits on to a single 256MB miniSD card. As with the N93 MI:3, cellphone owners can backup (but not play) the movie on another memory card or a PC should the movie be wiped clean from the card.

Other functions of the phone remain as advanced as before, including a 3.2-megapixel camera, Bluetooth, and mobile broadband. Pricing and a launch date are currently unavailable, though Europe will be the Godfather Edition's likely first target with a US release depending on movie rights. [via Terminal.hu]
