Nokia N93 ships stateside

by Chris Ziegler, posted Sep 28th 2006 at 12:17AM

Our enthusiasm for Nokia's biggie-sized N93 smartphone has died down a bit on news of 1) the N95 that somehow manages to outdo it spec-for-spec, and 2) the N75, which gives us long-overdue UMTS 850 / 1900 on a S60 device. Nonetheless, Nokia USA is looking to see if it can't push a couple of the 3.2-megapixel video cameras (that just happen to have a phone built in) out the door alongside the E70. At $700 unlocked, S60 3rd Edition dominance isn't cheap, but the N93 fits the bill when you absolutely, positively must have the biggest flip phone in the room -- just be prepared to come up a bit short on reception, seeing how it lacks GSM 850.

What the hell does Nokia think it's doing sending triband phones over here? Cingular doesn't support 900Mhz anywhere that matters and TMo just doesn't have a large enough customer base.

Has anyone told Nokia they would sell a lot more phones if they would just make them quadband? It's not hard to do and the investment isn't that large for the potential payoff. Open more stores and sell the phones directly to the customer.

Damn you Nokia!
