With a slide bar QWERTY keyboard, it isn’t as sleek as some of its competitors; however, with cramped and inaccurate touchscreen QWERTY keyboards being a big complaint of the most recent touchscreen smartphones, I think Nokia went in the right direction with the N97. The N97 is set to arrive in the first half of 2009 and word is it will cost you (brace yourself) about $700 before taxes. Of course, we’re always hoping for the price to drop with a standard 2-year contract, but given Nokia’s history of carrier-support with the N-series, it looks like we’ll have to settle for our first-born child.
