Nokia's Indian division recently announced that its customers there would be able to snatch up N96s of their own starting in September, so it comes as no surprise that European carriers are starting to confirm September release windows, too. Dutch carrier KPN, specifically, has announced that the N96 will start to flow its way in just a few tantalizingly short weeks -- September 15, to be exact -- while other carriers will have to wait an additional month until October 15 to get in on the action. One month isn't much of an exclusivity period, but when it comes to Nokia's most anticipated phone of the last few months (Tube notwithstanding), we're sure KPN will take what it can get.[Via Mobile Phone Helpdesk]
but when does the US version come out?
@brendan m: 99 percent sure it won't get picked up by a carrier. It does have the North American high-speed data frequencies however.
My own comment: They should have made the N96 a lot thinner...like half an in thin or so. All those features plus the thin-ness would ROXORS MY BOXORS!
