Contract. =(

This will be my next next next since I am will be getting the Black berry Storm next week and maybe some other phone which I haven't decided yet

rogers will probably get this too, hopefully they get it by Jan 2010, bcs i'm getting away from fido and their random data charges, f**ers try to trick tell me that my phone uses data bcs it's a foreign phone.

LOL!

better than my friend who left his internet browser on one time, and that month's phone bill was 300 bux.

Why is it that the 5800 got a higher rating than the n97 on gsmarena?

AHH!

UK Release March 31st at a price of £480 or €540 or $720 USD!!!!
Omg.
Too bad play.com doesnt ship out of Europe. Who knows how much the price will be marked up once it hits North American shores.

whoa love at first sight

Can't wait till they drop the NAM version. I'll be waiting patiently with my E71 in hand ready to be sold when this monster comes.

720 USD?

probably over 800 for it in phone stores in a couple months

No need for a NAM version; it's got tri-band HSDPA.

The Nokia N97 is set to be launched later this month for a not so insignificant £499 SIM Free or for £35 on a monthly contract with network operator 3. For the rest of us, we've managed to track down 9 different "Chinese" versions of the phone.

For those who think that this is a huge number, just bear in mind that a particular website lists nearly 150 iPhone clones (yes, 150) with prices starting from £59.50. The first Nokia N97 clones appeared back in August 2008, four months before Nokia even announced the device.

We estimate that there are twice as many other N97 clones currently on the market. They are all marred by the same problems: poor quality, no internet access, crap camera and lack of features.

I dont care about the chinese clones, but included it for those that do

im just pointing out the pricepoint! that means its probably gonna sell here at those shops for like $1500 at least

its getting launched in India at the same time too for 34,000rupees($807.16) which is cheaper than the uk: £499 (CAD $891.10)

its even cheaper in Singapore @ S$1,028 (CAD$789.94) singapore is going to get a music edition too(Comes With Music service) which will be S$1,228 (CAD$943.61)
