Nokia announced that the Nokia N96, unveiled earlier this year at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, will be made available for high-speed 3G HSDPA networks widely used in the Americas during the fourth quarter of 2008. Combining a large 2.8 inch screen, 16 gigabytes of internal memory and compatibility with a wide range of video formats, the Nokia N96 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 their favorite video content.


While optimized for entertainment, the Nokia N96 offers all of the innovative features that make the Nokia Nseries line of devices the most advanced on the market. Some of these cutting edge features include a five megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics, integrated Wi-Fi support and assisted-GPS navigation. Through the integration of Ovi services, the Nokia N96 becomes an even more powerful device. Consumers can enjoy one-click uploading of images, videos and other content using the Share on Ovi service, easy navigation across town and country with Nokia Maps 2.0 or a spur of the moment N-Gage games tournament with friends around the world using the preinstalled N-Gage application.

The Nokia N96 with Americas 3G support is expected to be available during the fourth quarter of 2008 for an estimated price of USD 895.
