Announced in late 2008, the Nokia N97 is one of the most spectacular mobile phones the Finnish manufacturer’s ever come up with. Let’s take a look at this awesome device, and see why it’s so special.

A potted history of Nokia touchscreen phones

Most people seem to be under the false impression that the Nokia 5800 is the first touchscreen mobile phone Nokia have ever made. It isn’t. The opposite’s true, because there have been a few touch-based phones to wear the Nokia name. Beginning with the 7700, the world has seen a couple of Nokia mobile phones that are controlled by you pressing directly on the screen. They all had reasonably big (for their time) screens, but the other feature they had in common, unfortunately, was that they were irredeemably hideous. Just one of those mobile phones, the 6708, displayed any promise, but that was destined solely to be sold in China, and so, we never got to play with them in Britain. The mobile phones WE got were, and I use this phrase with much feeling, utter, utter bobbins.

However, those unpleasant memories have now been firmly erased by the launch of a new Nokia mobile phone, which comes with a touch-sensitive display, and which is much, much nicer…

Bang up to date with the Nokia N97

One glance at the new Nokia N97 is enough to confirm that this is one of the most beautiful mobile phones Nokia have ever made. It’s not just the sleek, sexy body that gives the Nokia N97 its charm, it’s also that enormous touchscreen on the front of the phone, coming in at 3.5 inches, with a widescreen resolution. The fact that it’s a full touchscreen adds a whole new dimension to the Nokia N97, as well, allowing you to interact with your phone in a far more direct and exciting fashion. That’s aided, of course, by the interface in the Nokia N97, a new extension of the S60 Touch interface soon to be seen in the Nokia 5800. Suffice to say, the Nokia N97, being a far more powerful top-end mobile phone, takes it far further than its mid-range sibling, making the N97, by a considerable margin, the best touchscreen phone Nokia have ever made.

Into the future with the Nokia N97

In fact, no previous Nokia phones can match the Nokia N97 for power. Opening the list of functions and features is a superb 5 megapixel camera, so that you can snap some truly gorgeous images with the Nokia N97. Needless to say, they’ll display in luscious colour on the phone’s touchscreen, and with the built-in GPS, you can even add location data to them. As well as GPS connectivity, the Nokia N97 comes complete with a raft of internet connectivity options, including HSDPA and WiFi, which, in conjunction with the web browser, provide an internet experience that’s reminiscent of other Nokia phone, whilst being far more compelling. In terms of multimedia, you get top-end gaming, video and music, and a massive 32Gb of memory built into the phone, expanding its range of roles to include mobile phone, mobile broadband internet device, sat-nav and portable entertainment centre. Essentially, it’s very hard to find anything the Nokia N97 won’t do, and because of that, it seems likely this will easily be Nokia’s phone of the year!

Selecting an automotive GPS system involves making certain decisions. Real user experiences can be referred to before making purchase decisions from online communities. These include, for example, Y! Group and acoBay sites, where many users tell their own stories of buying and using products of different brands.

In fact, the most important decision has to do with whether you prefer a built in factory GPS, or does a portable unit best serve your purpose? For people who get on airplanes and rent a vehicle at their destination, a portable is the answer. If you already have a vehicle it is not practical to retrofit a factory GPS system. Even if you could you still have the issue of needing GPS in your rental car while yours is in your vehicle parked at home or in the airport parking lot. Most rental car agencies have an option to include GPS in your rental vehicle. Hertz’s excellent Magellan system is an example. But GPS vehicles are not always available. Once you learn to depend on these handy devices it is hard to go back to trying to read maps and ask directions. To the experienced GPS user, even a Mapquest or Google map just will not suffice. There is nothing like having a voice tell you “In 600 yards, take the exit”! or “In 60 yards, you have reached your destination”! There are those who rave about the GPS system in the Apple iPhone or in a number of the latest cell phones. They all lack the “voice feature” which helps keep one’s eyes on the road instead of on a map trying to monitor your progress via the small dot traveling over a relatively small screen. There are safety issues involved.

A GPS originally installed from the vehicle manufacturer usually has the advantage of a bigger screen located in the center of the dash. But do you want to buy a new vehicle just to get the built in Nav/GPS screen? A portable will involve an attached GPS receiver to be located on the dash and various power cords and attachments. Most OEM units use map data from an optical disk, whereas portable systems use solid state memory, requiring update downloads to be made from one’s PC. To update a built in GPS one merely buying a new cd or dvd and sliding it in. Why are updates important? If you want to drive in Canada, for example, you will need to add map data for the specific country. In rapidly growing areas like Las Vegas, without updated information newer areas won’t be mapped and you have to resort to old methods of navigation. Being caught by surprise once one has learned to rely on their GPS is highly inconvenient. The iPhone automatically updates itself, but as mentioned does not include the “talk to” feature. Different vendors charge different for their updates with the OEM installed systems costing the most. All of the factory built in units will talk to you.

The biggest players in portable GPS are Garmin, Magellan, and Tom Tom. All operate based on communication with Global Position System satellites circling the planet, hence the term GPS. They can purchased online from a variety of different sources using credit card or PayPal from your favorite electronics vendor. “Googling” “portable GPS” will provide numerous options. Prices have dropped remarkably in the last few months and GPS without the “talk to” option is becoming ubiquitous on cell phones. The modern techie will have a portable system like a Tom Tom, GPS built into the call phone in case of the portable GPS not having a particular update of a new area, AND a NAV system in the personal vehicle. These days there is no excuse for getting lost!
