The nokia n97 mobile phone has arrived !!! Well actually I am stupid to call it a mobile phone. It is actually as powerful and feature rich as a computer. Since this is a touchscreen smart phone, comparisons to iphone are inevitable. Looking at the featurelist of the nokia n97, i have a feeling that the comparison will not last for long. The N97 is just damn too superior to the iphone.

The Nokia N97 supports up to 48 GB of storage, including 32 GB of on-board memory. This is complemented by  full support for the Nokia Music Store and continuous playback time of up to 1.5 days. The Nokia N97 also has a 5-Megapixel camera with high-quality Carl Zeiss optics and DVD quality video capture, and support for services like Share on Ovi. Doesn’t that read like the specification of a computer!!

The Nokia N97 seems to have acknowledged the fact that people do use their mobile phones for browsing the web. Friends, social networks and news are available by simply touching the home screen. The Nokia N97 is fully capable of streaming Flash videos or playing games. The N97 is the first N-series phone with a physical QWERTY keyboard.

Just look at the features that I have highlighted and you will have no doubt about the aptness of the title. Only if Nokia was capable of creating a hype like Apple and only if it had a CEO half as cool as jobbs.
