The devices has a large 2.8 inch screen, 16 gigabytes of internal memory and compatibility with a wide range of video formats.
The phone will support video download services, including those using Windows Media format allowing N96 owners to explore, purchase and download their movies, television shows and other video content on their PCs and sideload them to their devices to watch at their convenience.
The internal 16 gigabytes of memory, and expandable memory card slot, allows up to 40 hours of video content to be stored on the Nokia N96. Additionally, the built in “kick stand” allows the Nokia N96 to be supported handsfree at an optimal viewing angle to ensure enjoyment of video content.
The Price? The Nokia N96 with Americas 3G support is expected to be available during the fourth quarter of 2008 for a not so cheap USD 895 making it more expensive than an iPhone! What is Nokia thinking?
