The Nokia N97 is incredibly astonishing as it has so many featuresand a massive memory capacity of 32GB and an additional memory slot of 16GB giving a total of 48GB.The Battery life is equally impressive as it uses the same as the Nokia E90.This phone is the World’s best handheld computer and the first of it’s kind in mobile technology.There is no doubt that this phone will transform the way we use the internet.Nobody does it better than Nokia in the business of connecting people.I just can’t wait to get mine as I am due for an upgrade now.

yet another “how long do we have to wait” new phone. I wanted a Sony X1 this time last year. By the time it finally came out there were other phones on the market so I continued with my N95. O2 could never give me a date of when it was expected. It’s the same with the N97! Phones at the end of the year will come with projectors installed. By the time I can get my hands on the N97 it will probably be a couple of months till those phones are available!
This aside, the key question is HOW LONG DOES THE BATTERY LAST FOR? I am worried about buying another Nokia after the dreadfully low life on my N95.

Agreed,
And the battery issue was addressed by the manufacturer with the launch of the Nokia N95 8GB a few months after they launched the N95 – no good for those who had already invested.
Let’s hope they don’t have to rush the release of the Nokia N97 and get it right first time!
