the touch screen will only be available in november. n96 will be out in sept

any info on processor speed?

looks sebijik n81

Don't ask me how I know, THIS IS NOT A FACT, so just read it as a reference. I am not so sure about every details but here is what i know.

Previously all Nokia Symbian platform is running on Texas Instruments OMAP processor. Nokia N95, Nokia N95 8G and Nokia N82 all running on Texas Instruments OMAP2420 processor which integrated ARM1136 processor (330 MHz).

Rumors had it that the new Nokia N96 will not be using the OMAP processor anymore in conjunction with Nokia change of policy to source the components for its phones from different vendor rather than only one. Rumors also suggesting that the new Nokia N96 will probably using the STn8815 Nomadik processor from STMicroelectronics. I dig further into the STn8815 Nomadik processor datasheet from the internet and found out that the STn8815 processor only has a integrated ARM926EJ processor. I compare the ARM1136 and ARM926 processor specifications from ARM website and clearly ARM1136 is a better and more advance processor. I have no idea why Nokia decided to downgrade the processor for their latest N96 phone (to save battery life maybe?). We will just wait until the real phone is out in the market to make the final judgment.

Whatever it is, 950mAh battery is still the deal breaker, nuff said...Why Nokia, why...

Nokia Never learn from prevoius model...

it really look like n81 with a bit modification..

I'm not going to get this because i know there will be a N96i. Take my word this.

got. the video call camera on n78 an n96 now is very very small. like pinhole size... there fore u cannot see it from far

marketing strategy..

Tat why can't see it all all.....Thinking y such high end phone not support video call...

ahh... as usual, nokia is getting lazy and lazier... wtf using back n81 design? aihh.... disappointment...

950mAh battery? so we gonna charge every half day or dont use phone at all to maximize the battery life to 1 day? did they left out "1" in front of 950mAh?

on the contrary, the 6220 is using a 1000mah batery lol

a video of the n96 i recorded
