The N96, Nokia’s new flagship handset, is the N95 improved a step or two technologically. The body is an N81 with a dual-slide action. We copied the complete specifications from the Nokia site and pasted it below. The surprise is the built-in 16GB memory. The iPhone may have taken the first shot Nokia is not far behind. The DVB-H and GPS photo tagging are awesome additions to what the N95 has got. If Nokia can maintain this incremental feature improvements, these Nseries phones will literally be your “computer in your pocket” in a very short time. Realistically, I’ll give Nokia 2 years to do this.
