Nokia’s Nifty N97 PR Page

Pretty simple approach: instead of boring HTML, Nokia decided to go with relatively interactive animation for the N97, making press-friendly information available through a virtual version of the phone. nokia.com/press/n97 is a bit heavy on the Flash, but the whole she-bang sort of implies the manufacturer’s commitment to make this phone fly.
Would you get a Nokia N97? Personally, I was never into Nokia’s kitchen sink phones. Aside from the high cost of (usually unsubsidized) ownership, N9Xs were never known for their responsiveness. On top of that, you’ve also got usefully multi-functional models like the E63. That’s available at a much lower price point, yet literally has enough functionality for practically any mobile task.
I might change my tune if this phone meets my responsiveness standards. Here’s to hoping for quick dibs on a review unit!
