Did you know that AT&T plans on marketing the N75 to males and females ages 25 to 45? Or that said individuals should be "spontaneous and fun"? Personally, we think that North America's first 3G-compatible S60 device suits 18 year old curmudgeons and 80 year old hermits just as well as it does anyone else -- just don't expect your friendly local AT&T sales associate to agree after he or she takes a gander at AT&T's training guide for the device. Nothing too surprising in here from a device features perspective, though we're glad to see that AT&T lists "hundreds of compatible applications" as one of Symbian's selling points, suggesting that the carrier is going to be making at least a half-hearted attempt to keep the phone open. Hit the gallery for the full doc!
Another interesting tidbit of information is that the the N75 already has its own webpage at AT&T. Check out below link:

You'll notice that it's "Temporarily out of stock" which probably is their way of saying that its not released yet.
However, the wait for this phone has just been increasingly frustrating, especially considering Nokia's current abysmal and dated offering of Nokia phone's. Though I'm not a fan of flip phones - I prefer the block/bar design - I'll take ANY high-end Nokia phone that Cingular/AT&T has to offer at this point.
Now all we need is a CDMA version with Rev. A EVDO.
I wonder if they will re-brand the ENTIRE catalog so as to remain in keeping with their "the New AT&T" stuff...
funny how they mention "pocketable" towards the end of the training guide, describing their targeted customer....
at 20mm thick - i'd hardly call it pocketable.... unless you like sticking bricks in your pant pockets...
peace
top secret: this phone is coming on Friday (scheduled shipment arrival)
Its ironic that the hipsters that AT&T's Training Guide is targeting are much more likely than average to be Mac users, and of course there is no Mac software/support.
Alexei,
How sure are you that it will be here Friday? Are you talking being available online or in the stores?
How sure are you that the N75 will be in stock?
