Aside from its sleek candy bar design, the Nokia 6300 also features an LCD display, FM radio, Bluetooth technology, EDGE packet data and has both POP3 and IMAP4 capabilities. However, the Symbian platform found on many of Nokia's phones, including the Nokia 6300, can be vulnerable to viruses. The phone can contract a virus either through the transfer or receiving of data via Bluetooth, or by installing software applications from untrusted sources. Fortunately these viruses are removable in a number of ways, including with a PC or with your phone's built-in browser.
