So it has been officially announced.  The new Nokia N97 is scheduled to come out in the first half of 2009 and everyone is waiting on the edge of their seats. Okay maybe not literally but people definitely are looking forward to the phone.  

It is being called the iPhone killer and, yes, we know yesterday we posted about the Nokia 5800 which was giving the same name but the N97 is being called a Nokia 5800 on sterioids and rightly so.  This little monster has so much packed in we are speechless.  It comes with all the standard things we love in the N9x series of phones like being quad band and having the 5MP camera, but it has so much more.  Unlike the iPhone the N97 has stereo bluetooth (A2DP) so you can use a stereo bluetooth headset to list to your music and it also has more storage capacity then the iPhone, up to three times for to be exact.  The N97 comes standard with 32GB of internal memory and can be expanded another 16GB with the microSD slot.  The iPhone comes with a maximum 16GB and no room for growth.  Then there is the camera.  Yes the 5MP is nice and again it is something that the iPhone doesn’t have, but even though the iPhone has only a 2MP the iPhone doesn’t do video.  Well you guessed it the N97 does and it does it at 30fps which won’t replace your camcorder , but will definitely get the job done for those times you won’t have your camcorder handy.

Now like everyone else we’ve only seen demo units.  We can’t pass full judgement until the phone makes its way to the public.  We at Puremobile.ca will definitely have the Nokia N97 as soon as it is available.  Keep checking our site for more information
