      Anonymous, 02 Jul 2009I think u evn don know the meanin of flagship,u r just pret... more"Pretendin" who the hell are you Mr Real

      i'm being real, this ain't worth a 2 year wait to upgrade from N95 and certainly not from a N85

      the only real i got a N85 is cause N95 8GB's USB speed was screwed up.

      go to hell, i am a Nokia fan but people like you are a disgrace, Nokia did rule and it has the power to rule..

      but N97 ain't nothing for a flagship, its a slick phone but thats it

        Got my Nokia yesterday.
        Filled it to the brim with music and video already, and even with sat nav, music and photo browsers open it copes pretty damn well, all with the transitions on!

        There is so many bad words against this phone but until you've tried one (or unless you are so god damn picky) then you will love this phone. It's wowed my mates over one guys HD Omnia, and as for the "insensative" resistive screen I can easily get my paws all over the numeric pad! Compared to capacitive it is nice to apply a little pressure followed by a 'confirmation vibration'.

        Well done Nokia, awesome phone without the bug fixes, better with! Can't wait to update and for the N98 which will certainly RULE THE WORLD.

              When i pay so much money for a phone,then i expect that any new firmware is already updated and included.I don't pay for sitting in front of the computer trying to fix the bugs.........
              Nokia belongs to the past for me.............
              (And of course i didn't buy the N97).

                I agree - this is meerely a software issue - nothing an update can't fix. I am a proud owner of a N97 and I am looking forward to updating mine, its not available yet for me but I can still say the phone is brilliant at what it does an I will stay faithful to nokia

                      The above comment. That is very good comment. You update computer software as applicable to mobile phones. I don't think for now you can afford this N97.

                      We that are already having the product is very okay. I will update mine if i like because i am not experiencing any problem for now.

                      Thanks.

                        guys guys guys this a software issue. if you are a programmer you would know that there is no 100% complete software. always there r bugs that can be fixed... all softwares have bugs, from computers to mobiles ect... thats y there are always updates... whats the big deal all just get your software updated and enjoy it shish...

                        and expect another software update also for the N97 dont think this is the final version... as for all the mobiles out there for all the brands...

                              hahaha what an isheep it took apple 2 years to release an MMS and 100 more features apart some features still missing, how dare you compare the apple with nokia go die you noob
