N97 maybe not coming to o2 and Orange?



Certain sources suggest that o2 and Orange have stated they’ve not accepted the N97 due to the fact that it comes pre-installed with Skype. The concern is, that Skype’s VOIP feature will lead to loss in revenue from contracts. People may opt for a lower monthly line rental with less free minutes and use Skype more often. Would you use Skype to replace your free minutes?. I use Skype to call my Skype contacts. I have Skype on my E71 and use it to call my Skype contacts on the move. I only tend to use Skype to call my overseas friends or colleagues, which I’d never use my network for anyway. Imagine the costs?! An O2 spokesperson was quoted as saying “We have made no announcement yet on whether will stock this handset, we are currently working with Nokia to understand their Skype service and the business model around it.” Personally, I believe this is just in negotiation which will come out with a win-win result. First of all, I can’t imagine o2 or Orange not support such a flagship Nokia handset, it would cause many network ports. Secondly I can’t imagine Nokia not meeting the needs of 2 major UK operators and missing out on sales and potentially damage their relationship. Lets face it, all it would take from Nokia is for the firmware to be tweaked. Skype could be removed or alternatively utilise a Wifi only version of Skype similar to the one seen on the iPhone.

Nokia Announces New N97!



Today, Nokia announced to the world, their latest addition to the mobile playground. The new N97 looks like its going to be a powerhouse of a phone, jammed to the brim with features and gizmos. One of the most notable one being the big 3.5-inch TFT Touch-sensitive 16:9 widescreen (640 x 360 pixels), beating Apple iPhone’s screen. Other features include: 5.0 Megapixel Digital Camera with Carl Zeiss Tessar lens and duel LED flash. 32GB Onboard Memory Wi-Fi Connectivity. Assisted GPS Navigation System. HSDPA Connectivity. TV-output, Video Player, and Video Recorder. Full-Size slide out QWERTY Keyboard. PUSH Email This phone is set to be Nokias new flagship model, transforming the way users intergrate and connect to the internet. The phone will be, when released, the most advanced phone available – blending the gray area between smartphone and laptops. The N97 looks set to be released sometime Q1 2009 with late March being tipped as a possibility, although Nokia did not give any information on an official launch date.

Both the Nokia 5800 and the Nokia N97 ultilise the new Series 60 5th edition operating system, which is intended for touch screen handsets. So we felt it would be an ideal handset comparison.

The 5800 was first to be released, it was also Nokia’s first touch screen phone. The N97 is yet to hit our shores and still no official release date.

At the time of writing this comparison, we don’t have access to both phones and so it’s not nearly as accurate as we’d like. We can’t compare build quality, functionality and other vital aspects of the handsets. But we can at least give you good overview of both handsets and help you decide whether it’s worth waiting for the N97 or to just rush out and get a 5800 today.

Looking at the specifications, there’s some significant differences between the two phones. The N97 has had 4 major notable upgrades, the screen size, camera, slide out QWERTY keyboard and internal memory. The N97’s 32GB of memory is staggering and double that of even Apple’s largest Iphone. The 5800 only comes equipped with 81MB of internal storage, though Nokia have made up for that by supplying an 8GB MicroSD card with the handset. We were a little disappointed to see, that despite the camera upgrade, Nokia haven’t included a Xenon flash, though dual LED isn’t too shabby. We’re really looking forward to test driving the slide out keyboard on the N97!

The Nokia 5800 is slightly smaller and lighter in weight. But nothing significant. Probably due to the Nokia N97’s bigger screen. We’re hoping that once we get our mitts on the N97, we’re going to discover it’s build quality is superior to that of the 5800, which isn’t a notch on Apples iPhone.

Overall both handsets feature an impressive array of features, such as Wifi, GPS, Bluetooth, Email, MMS etc but the N97 has the edge with it’s improved features and upgraded hardware. We think it looks the bees knees too.
