Nokia 5800 XpressMusic coming to China without 3G or WiFi

We’ve heard of strict policies, but after the iPhone 3G lost it’s high-speed data due to Chinese regulations, we thought the nitpicking was over.  Unfortunately for those of you hoping to get your hands on the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic in China, expect your device to be missing both 3G and WiFi.  According to the Nokia Forum, the Chinese version is a “2G variant without WLAN” which essentially kills any thoughts of wireless streaming for video content or a smooth web browsing experience.  Looks like you will actually have to use your 5800 XpressMusic for music because there is no way a front-facing camera is finding its way to a 2G-only variant.
