Nokia throws up "pre-order soon" logo on US N97, drives the kids crazy

by Darren Murph posted Apr 30th 2009 at 9:26AM

Thanks to the always revealing FCC, we knew good and well Nokia's painfully expensive N97 had Carolina (and probably the other states, to be fair) on its mind, but now we know the moment of truth is drawing near. As of right now, Nokia's US website has a teaser block informing us Yanks that we'll be able to pre-order this here smartphone "soon." Hitting the link only directs us the European legalese that we've digested before, but surely it'll lead to something meaningful in due time. Patience... it's a virtue.

I suspect it will sell more like $599 at the beginning.

After the last disappointing processor news, i'm really thinking thinking about a pre order, instead of a preorder.. ;-)

Hmm.. you're one of them thare megahertz/megapixel junkes, are you?

Processor frequency != device performance. (Ask Intel).

@Tor: Well.. you might be right there.. but besides the point that i liked the linguistic joke, i have to admit i've been thinking to get the n97 at preorder, but now i'll probably wait until i've seen some decent review of the retail-version... And the pre is tempting, dont you think?
