I've been a SE fan since I got my K800 - best phone i've ever had - then I got the K850 and I have never hated a phone so much! It's just rubbish compared to it's Predecessor, always freezing, erasing info, having to do a master reset ever 2 months cos it won't let you into your inbox, camera lights stay on when you change your application, decides to go slow sometimes whilst composing text, I could go on, roll on N96 release!!!

I know what you mean. But then again when the original N95 came out it was just as much. I think a little more?

according to play.com they are releasing the Nokia N96 on the 31st of July. They are taking pre-orders. Although Nokia has not released any press statement regarding the truth of this matter. There has been people who have claimed August, September release dates.
Even so, there's no official release date.

According to the press release datasheet at the nokia website, it only use the 8Gb MicroSD as an example. Perhaps when it comes out the N96 would support up to 16GB as well.
But again, I don't understand. Why is everyone comparing the touch phones with the N96? I've said again and again, the N96 is a button phone. There are no other button-based phones that can match what the N96 has to offer.

You don't have one, you're bluffing.
If by chance you own something that looks like this and is supposedly an "N96" then it's obviously a fake.

Really!! 5megapixels, 30 fps video, Carl Zeis optics etc... and NO XENON FLASH! REALLY!!!
This is just ridiculous! I thought they were past this stage when the N82 came out!
Seriously Nokia! That goes for all those other LED camera phone makers!

prince, 11 Jun 2008Ok. Is the flash of the camera xenon or LED. Please get this cleared for me. Thank u. Another ... moreI cannot tell you which is better but personally, i think i'm not ready to move to touch screen yet. Button phones work fine for me. It might also come to style too... the Omnia looks more like a girl's phone.
Oh and I was sick of Samsungs. My past 3phones have been samsungs and i've been hearing good things about the Nokias so i'm going to give them a go. My last phone was a U700, apart from the excellent camera, the rest of the phone was a huge disappointment.

carloud, 11 Jun 2008hehehe
sir dani software were never a problem for the n95 even on pre-20 firmware
and ram ... morecarloud, it actually does feature a naviwheel. www.mobile-review.com reviewed the prototype and they claim that it has a naviwheel.
As for the xenon flash. I've never used the Xenon flash before but i have seen some photo comparisons of xenon and LED flash. Nokia says that the dual LEDs in the N96 is supposed to be better for the phone's battery.
