This is truly the industry’s best kept secret - the Nokia N97. Everyone knew there was an Nseries touchscreen in the making, but NO ONE had any idea of the specs or the form factor… & here comes the N97. The best way to describe this device would be exactly what Jonas Geust, VP of Nokia Nseries has stated:

“From the desktop to the laptop and now to your pocket, the Nokia N97 is the most powerful, multi-sensory mobile computer in existence”

So, is this the perfect device… alas no! It still lacks multi-touch or whatever sonar-thingy Nokia have in the making. & then there’s also that 8MP stunner on the Nokia roadmap… But still that’s one small step for a phone but a giant leap for mobilekind… :P
