Nokia N96 official

11 February 2008 7:36 by Matti "Siggy" V�h�kainu | 4 comments

Nokia announced N96 multimedia phone or "computer" as they call it. Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo, the Chief Executive Officer of Nokia, announced today N96 and three other phones at Mobile World Congress 2008 in Barcelona. The earlier speculated N96 boasts an impressive list of features, including A-GPS, Wi-Fi, 2,8" display, 16GB of INTERNAL flash memory and a MicroSD slot.

The other N-series phone announced today was the N78, which will have "wireless music, photo and navigation features." You'll find a 3,2Mpix camera, A-GPS, Bluetooth 2.0, and an integrated FM trasmitter inside the N73 successor. Nokia also announced two a bit more traditional phones at MWC, the 6220 Classic and 6210 Navigator. The first one has a 5Mpix camera and A-GPS, and the latter has an integrated compass, an accelerometer and the new Nokia Maps 2.0 navigation software.

In addition Nokia revealed the revamped and renamed online community Share (formerly known as Twango) which is integrated into the Ovi portal. Share allows sharing (surprise, surprise) of multimedia files between different devices, and features an unlimited amount of storage.

I'll buy that classic if it has flash and is under $350 CAD... And MP3... That N96 sounds crazy but it's just way to expensive for me as a phone and on a plan if I wanna get the most out of it :( [ + quote] This message has been edited since posting.

I think Nokia lacks design engineers as they fail to bring out some innovative design. this is same old crap people are tired of seeing. Nokia please bring out something more revolutionary than Apple iPhone. Sachin [ + quote]
