wow this looks some piece of kit, spec wise very good but i think it maybe a bit chunky for my needs. Might be pleasently suprised when/if i see it the flesh though?
I think this is aimed about right though, with the previous N95/N96 all about internet/video/multimedia/connectivity etc this sits nicely as a logical progression.
Think the touchscreen imaging centric phone would be more likely to be seen in an N8* series (xenon flash/non slide qwerty etc) if Nokia are following the trend.
All in all very excited about this new release though

Nokia is getting desperate for "MOAR!!!"
Of course, they use Carl Zeiss Vario Tessar which is also used by Sony Cyber-Shot cameras, so when Nokia tries an 8 MP, Nokia will get sued by Sony... WIN!
#2: Nokia N97 has silver and black colors, like SE's first Xperia Win-Mo powered device, X1.
#3:In GSMArena, X1 is rated as the most rates and viewed, so Nokia wants to defeat this title.
#4: Nokia taunted Engadget that they didn't post about this phone -- exactly, it was leaked last month. =P
#5: They do have a 5MP camera which X1 doesn't have. But X1 has greater resolution which is WVGA 800x480 than N97's almost VGA 640x360. X1 is a true WIDESCREEN phone.
#6: Nokia is jealous of SE, Samsung and LG.
#7: I bet my C902 can defeat N97 when taking pictures..
#8: Nokia can't make their own cameras -- only until CIF.. Lol!
#9: HSDPA 3.6MBPS? Puh-leez. Xperia has that speed. Maybe even 7.2MBPS..
#10: And almost N97 is heaver than X1.
#11: N97 has a a 3.5inch screen like an iPhone.
-- What's next? N98, N99, then N100? How stewpeed.

Isnt anything new in the features front by Nokia, but a great device all the same. there is also MWC coming up and i hope that the other manufacturers can throw up something as great as Nokia has done so.I hope Nokia, doesnt do an SE and release the N97 too late.

only problem in all that is that windows mobile is uttetr CRAP (IMO)
n97 is an amazing device...Nokia puts SE to shame. SE had the lead on touch screen technology, but now all is lost...they are folowers...

Are you plankgatan in disguise?
I think argument #6 holds the most weight cause i've just been on the official nokia site & there is a HUGE message (you can't miss it) that states.
We have released the N97 because we are jealous of SE, Samsung & LG.

I really don't think tis should have been labeled the n97 it just doesn't fit in with the previous range.
Looks more like a business / consumer device and they never work out well. Its either on or the other not both.
Mind you, i'm sure it'll sell like hot cakes to people who don't need it.

I was so sure that I would buy the 5800 but after this announcement I'm getting the N97 no matter what.
