Nokia's N79 and US spec'd N85 now mucho official

We're not going to re-hash the details of Nokia's N79 and N85 yet again. After all, we just went through it less than 24-hours ago. We will tell you that both the N79 (tri-band GSM, 900/2100 UMTS/HSDPA) and N85 (quad-band GSM/EDGE with either 900/1900/2100 or 850/1900/2100 UMTS/HSDPA) will hit Europe in October for €350 and €450, respectively, pre-tax and pre-carrier subsidies. The N85 could also be Stateside sometime soon given those frequencies and prior FCC approval. Oh, and pictures, lots of pretty pictures.

We had the chance to spend some time with the N85 and N79 last week and shot photos and videos:

I like this phones very much, especially the N79.But the Sony Ericsson X1 is better.

Just too bad windows mobile sucks so bad it ruins a good handset such as the X1
