N97 Bloggers Meet in Bangalore

June 9th, 2009

Nokia arranged a N97 Bloggers Meet earlier today in Bangalore. These are some pics from the event. Also attached are two pdf’s that were distributed during the event. More pics coming soon.

N97 will be available all over India 16th-23rd June onwards at an approx price of INR 36K.

From Vinu's blog :

Some of the points which caught my attention about the N97 are:

* A whopping 32GB of internal memory – which can be expanded to a maximum of 48GB. This is great for carrying around your media and there’s no need of another media player :)

* 16:9 screen ratio – perfect for viewing widescreen movies on the go – this unit’s got a TV out so you can project the movies on your phone on the big screen.

* A FM transmitter – to listen to your music on the car radio without the need of extra cables to hook it on.

* Home Screen Widgets – this allows you to have a pieces of the Internet on your home screen.

* The QWERTY keyboard had a good feel to it. Even though the keys on the N97 are smaller than the E75’s, they layout seems to just feel better laid out on the N97.

* The touchscreen also seems to perform better than the 5800’s.

* The phone comes bundled with the Facebook application, apart from other Social Media application like Hi5 and Qik. So you don’t have to hunt for these apps once you get your phone.

* The tilt of the screen when the keypad is open is a very useful feature allowing the user to place the phone on a table while typing out messages and emails, taking calls or surfing the web.
