Imagine, share, store, see and manage it all with the Nokia N97. Short list of features include 32Gb of on-board storage, 5 mega-pixel camera and a huge 3.5 inch display although is it worth more than $1,000?

The featherweight of only 150grams (less than a cheeseburger), is set for full release in June 2009. The smartphone has a touchscreen display with full virtual QWERTY keyboard. The phone can be brought to life with a personalized Home Screen, Tilting Display, TV Out, Document and File Viewing (including Word, PDF, Excel, ZIP and PowerPoint). As well as Nokia Web Browser and Flash Lite 3.0 Support.

Notwithstanding, the ultimate question: Are all these features worth the price tag? It is certainly cool to have unlimited phone book memory (but really, who knows that many people), talking ringtones (to warn me when the Mother is calling) and music support for MP3, AAC, eAAC, eAAC+ and WMA. However, depending on the daily conversion rate, the phone would be over $1,000 in the US as European buyers will be parting with €844.99! Nokia are certainly one to offer phones from the basic do-what-you-need to the super toys offering all the luxury you could imagine. Sad part is that the price matches the features list.

A few specifications:

• Operating System: Series 60 5th Edition
• Dimensions: 117.2mm (L) x 55.3mm (W) x 15.9mm (T)
• GSM/GPRS: Quad-Band 850/900/1800/1900MHz

• Camera: 5 mega-pixel (auto focus) with Dual LED Flash
• Video: 30fps Video Recording (VGA) with supported formats of MP4, 3GP, H.264, Flash, H.263, WMV, Flash Video and Real Player
• Memory Card: microSDHC
• Messaging: SMS, MMS, Instant Messaging (MSN) and Email (POP3, SMTP, IMAP4, MS Exchange)
