Nokia N97 - Nokia’s Secret Weapon to Take on the iPhone

Nokia introduced the Nokia N97 on 2nd December, 2008 at the Nokia World
08 in Barcelona, Spain. Nokia is positioning its latest offering from
the high-end N series as a rival to the Apple iPhone and the Blackberry
Storm. The N97, expected to be available from the first half of 2009, is
chock full of features as one would expect from a mobile computing
device that costs EUR 550 or $700 before taxes. Nokia has stated a
rather ambitious aim of redefining the Internet through its N97 mobile
computing device and with its billion strong user-base plus a vast
majority of global population to tap, it just might succeed in doing that.
