FCC shows Nokia N92 some approval love

by Chris Ziegler, posted Aug 4th 2006 at 5:12PM

Nokia's DVB-H capable N92 may not support GSM 850 or a UMTS band that's useful to us here in the States -- never mind the fact that we don't have any DVB broadcasts to tune in to -- but that doesn't mean we can't lust after the dual-pivot clamshell with its gorgeous 2.8-inch display. Happily, it looks like we can now satisfy our desires without ruffling the feathers of the, uh, FCC police. Of course, that still means we'd have to find some stock; despite getting announced alongside the N80 last year, the N92 hasn't yet become available in significant quantity, though Nokia's promising that we should start to see 'em here in the second half of the year.

"This is insignificant! Where is the N73!?!?!"

It was already approved July 11 and it's actually in shops now.

N73? We already have em here in Asia (Brunei). But seeing as I just got the N80, there's no point in getting a WiFi-less phon... I mean mobile computer.

The pricing? It's the same with the N80 that was released... two months ago here? It's at BND$978 or USD 620 without subsidy/plan.

But after reviewing HowardForums the N80 appears to really suck. WiFi is not worth a phone that sucks.

And that suckiness turns out to be from Symbian Series 60 v3, which powers the N73.

DVB-H is scheduled to be deployed in NYC by Modeo by the end of the year. They need some handsets to show the service off, right?
