discount and rebate are two things unseen or heard of for a new N series phone in the U.S. Not to mention a home on a major carrier. Holding ya breath would be a form of attempted suicide concerning this matter.

the phone is weak! I love nokia but every phone beats the iphone in specs! Apple's strong point is there dedication to their products whether it questions and replacement( actual apple store), or loading it up (itunes) they have you covered. Regardless if you like it or not, you have to respect their ability hustle the mindset of the consumer. I dislike Apple, but watching one of there iphone commercials can almost get you stupefied enough to think you need one. If your doing comparisons you would have to reasonably compare to the Htc's and Samsungs. As far as im concerned The Htc HD and Samsung Omnia blows this phone out on so many levels, especially text input! Oh and i just seen the n97 aka Nokia high end touch screen. They got some work to do before i invest another $700 dollars with them. Thats too bad to cuz my n95-4 and iphone 3g are boring me, and i was really looking for Nokia to have that 1 great phone to replace the two.
