Bump....

US Pre-order is up:

http://www.nokiausa.com/preorders/?I...on001&offr=N97

Use coupon code CARTP409N to bring the total to $454 + free Bluetooth headset.

Thanks for the coupon ScottC.. I used it and it worked wonders! Saved almost $250!

Thanks again!

Were you able to choose color when you pre-ordered...??? I cant seem to get the website to respond when I try to pre order... grrrrrr :mad:

Yes I can actually.. I picked the white..

works now... thanks !!!! ^ ^

Related question... what is the largest micro-SD card that you can use with this phone... Im assuming there is a max size card that the OS will support, or am I mistaken...??

It'll take an SDHC MicroSD, so at the moment 16GB is the largest, but 32GB will probably be here in a year or so.

As for your PM - you are asking the wrong person :D I am not a Symbian fan myself. Phones out there at the moment that I really like are the HTC Dream (T-Mobile G1/Android phone) and the HTC Touch Pro 2.

Not an iPhone fan, and not a Symbian fan. I'd pick Blackberry over Symbian.

You got lucky! When they woke up this morning, they realized that the coupon was not meant to work like that :D

The correct price was supposed to be $629, without the free Bluetooth headset.

Those that snagged this for $454 should keep their fingers crossed that Nokia honors the deal.

Darn... this means that by the time I get the Electronics Mule that I need to find this coupon will probably be pulled from the website..... darn :mad:

Hmm..... well, I guess the non-tech side of me cant find much to say against the Symbian OS. I have looked at the HTC phones but Im too much of a brand sucker :o to even consider HTC.

Back to the OS issue... dont HTC phones have Windows OS...? I thought that Windows mobile OS also had a bunch of issues.... or? Is the Windows OS that much better than Symbian...?

It's such a personal thing - the whole mobile OS is very much like the desktop OS - windows fans will always prefer it over MacOS, and VV.

I like Windows Mobile - it is by no means perfect, but it works, and it is mature enough that you can get things done. I find Android to be even better than Windows, it is much more polished, and the whole OS is just a pleasure to work with. That said, I don't know if any operator sells them in your country, so you'd probably need the Google developer version (which is unlocked and open).

That said - if you have your mind set on Nokia, by all means go for it. The N97 is an amazing phone, and I don't think it'll let you down.

Gracias Scotty..... this closes the case, I will go for it.

Now... back to hunting down an Electronics Mule to EZE... :p

Well, I guess we'll just see how this goes.. Could you link me to the web in which this case is highlighted?

Thanks a bunch!
