A couple of weeks ago, Vodafone and Nokia announced at a conference that only the black Nokia N97 would be available at launch. At the time I made a prediction that the white N97 would be a network exclusive.

According to Pocket Lint the Phones4u have the exclusive for 8 weeks.

The retailer will also be offering the black N97 too at launch. The N97 will be available for free on a £40 plus a month, 2-year contract with Orange, as well as a £45 a month, 18-month contract and for £100 on a £35 a month, 18-month contract. The latter comes with 600 minutes, with the other two offering 1200. 3000 texts come bundled with all the packages.
