Nokia N96 available to Pre-order at long last!

Finally, there is light at the end of the tunnel! The Nokia N96, quite possibly the Finnish manufacturers most eagerly anticipated mobile phone, is almost upon us. With Stock due from the 1st of October, the N96 is now available to pre-order on the O2 network from today; don’t risk missing out on this multimedia power house, reserve yours now! The N96 has gathered massive interest as the successor to Nokia’s hugely popular N95 and N95 8GB models and with multimedia support that would embarrass even the highest spec mobile phones currently available it’s easy to see why.

Lurking inside the sleek dual slide design, the N96 holds 16GB internal storage (capable of storing up to 3500 songs), features an impressive 5.0 Megapixel autofocus camera with Carl Zeiss optics and powerful dual LED flash, HSDPA, GPS and Wi-Fi connectivity and running on Symbian S60. But where the N96 really excels is in the multimedia support; standards such as MP3, MPEG4 and FM radio are complimented by exciting new additions to the mobile market including an in-built DVB-H broadcast receiver for live TV broadcasting and collaboration with BBC to accommodate the excellent BBC iPlayer video service. And I could go on; I haven’t even mentioned my favourite bit, the brilliant kick stand on the back which props the handset up for the perfect video viewing position (I need to get out more)!

All information you were probably already aware of (except maybe that last bit), the news here is that you can now get one step closer to actually owning it! Click here to pre-order your N96 today!
