Nokia N97 multimedia handset revealed
Looks like it's N-Gage compatible, too
Other than the occasional hardware review we don't get too involved in handsets here on Pocket Gamer (that's more for our sister site PocketPicks.co.uk) but the new Nokia N97 is just too sexy to ignore - especially as it'll support N-Gage.
The alluringly slim beast features a full slide-out QWERTY, with the rather unusual inclusion of a D-pad alongside it on the shelf. There's also a 3.5" widescreen touchscreen, wi-fi, 5 megapixel camera, GPS, 32GB of onboard memory and a microHCSD slot for another 16GB.
It also makes some pretty bold promises about battery life, which is important when you've got a powerful pocket computer that's likely to eat electricity like the rubbish villain Electro from Spider-Man.
The press release doesn't mention N-Gage specifically, but this PDF Data Sheet on Nokia's website confirms it's N-Gage compatible. The handset is due on sale sometime in the first half of next year.
