I hate to be a Debbie Downer...but when you get to the store, ask them to play with the Touch Pro 2 due out on the 12th...ITS REALLY NICE...and even though its 299.99 that extra 100 bucks gets you a whole lot!

such language boys...no need to be so passionate with words...xnifex....well...its so sad but I did not get the N97 and have decided to wait for this machine. What will also be great is the Tmobile 3g which if you dont get the branded one, you will not go 3g with the unlocked model. WHY WHY WHY couldnt you have done us Noka fans right??? hello HTC and welcome...

nice...its a never ending game thought isn't it...the chase continues for that most awsome phone!!! Damn you Nokia...I may have been upset with the N97...but you sure do make dreamy phones to keep me in love with you.....lol

and one more thing while im fired up....IT IS MY OPINION, that when they had a "glitch" that morning for several hours and people got a really good price first...then a second really good price...then suddenly nothing....i know on the east coast i woke up that morning around 730am i think i remember...by 745 am the site started to stick and i had to hit the process button like 20 times not giving up and then it accepted my credit card. my point is...many of us surf the n97 news...so the window frame of time apprently was small...so someone was up buying the U.S. phone from the US site and the first to leak the story was one of the Nokia fan sites...that incident..GENERATED HUGE AMOUNTS OF INTERNET BUZZ...HUGE...it was dead a week before that...only getting...lackluster press...then..its all $524.00!!! If i know marketing...it seems so obviously planted....not that anything is too wrong with it...cause it worked...i guess im again just frustrated with how nokia handles its US customers...i mean is it greed that keeps them from partnering with ATT or changing the circuitry to be on Tmobile??? how awsome it would have been for Tmobile to have snagged that as a compitetor for the Iphone..but no...instead we get the G1...from HTC...a low level player on the rise...you dont think Tmobile banked on that deal cause they controlled that deal? i guess im sounding a little to conspiracy theory crazy...lol...its late im rambling...nite you all...

look, i will be an N97 owner for sure. but am i the only one frustrated with the on going games with Nokia and allowing certain testers to play with it but not publish any software reviews? i mean, the N97 is an uphill battle here in the U.S. period. No subsidies...it is...and i love Nokia but we have to win the hearts and minds of yester years long past of former Nokia owners. the 5800 im sorry to say, but from first hand experience the phone sound quality was GREAT..speakers great...but even after the last big 20.1 something firmware the UI really was bad. I mean it wasnt smooth at all. So now you have all the bad press of the 5800 and then some bad press about tyring it out at trade shows even though its a demo model most are saying its not too good. I just feel like...DAMMIT...let someone give us a sneak review even if its a small one...i can't help but feel we arent getting it because it really isnt going to be so great...i mean..are they working 24 hrs round the clock perfecting and smoothing out that firmware? maybe thats it...they are working non stop. i mean...how much time in advance is production happening...how come with all the nokia fan websites...we cant even get a lock down on how the keyboard will be? last time i checked they say the keyboard isnt finalised yet. again i love nokia...but just frustrated with them..and my gut tells me its because its not very good...all that means for preorders from amazon is lots of people returning them..considering they are the cheapest and amazon has no restocking fee....lets get a review before the actual sale day...dont string your avid fans along so we buy it and then realize its far from ready...i know its business...but isnt anyone else frustrated by their marketing tactics.??

its Nam because it is listed on the Nokia USA website. They will not release until the NAM comes out, which of course will proceed the European model, presumably.:

hi everyone,
im sorry to say but this review is pretty on cue. i previously owned this nokia and decided to return it. it has great call qualities, i thought a nice design but that whole touch screen interface...well...WAS NOT GOOD...it had lots of buggie things and im sure the newest firmware resolved many small issues...but gosh no comparison when you compare "touch software" by iphone. its true. i love nokia and will buy the 5730 when it comes out...but this touch 5800. wasnt good enough for my money

we saw bolt the dog movie..to me the only thing 3d about it was that the cartoon animation looked a little bit more dimnensional ...its just not that great having to leave on glasses for 2 hours ....espically if you have an astigmatism like me...lol

just got off the phone with sales at Dell his information shows a official US release date of the 31st of May on the XPS M1210...he did not comment on the specs nor did i bother to ask...i figured he would not comment on something that isnt "official" yet.
