Nokia five megapixel N95 with WiFi, GPS available 1Q07
Nokia today debuted its slider-type N95 camera phone (see left) the features a five megapixel camera with a Carl Zeiss lens, video recording at 30 frames per second, embedded GPS and integrated WiFi.
The handset also offers geo-tagging with uploading to Flickr, a 2.5 QVGA screen, stereo speakers and a video-out connection to a television.
There are two ways to use the slider. Nokia says in its press release, "A numeric keypad slides out from one end of the device while dedicated media keys slide out from the opposite direction, converting the display into full screen landscape mode."
The N95 won't be available, however, until the first quarter of 2007. The retail (non-subsidized) price will be about 550 euros ($704).
N75 for U.S.
Nokia also announced the two megapixel clamshell-type N75 camera phone with EDGE/HSDPA/WCDMA that's targeted for the United States. It's expected to be available by the end of this year.
The N75 features a QVGA screen, microSD slot and FM radio.
Nokia says it has sold ten million of its high-end Nseries phones, a tiny number compared to its total annual sales. Nokia has been promoting the Nseries as "multimedia computers" rather than mere "phones."
That's also a good way to help justify the cost of the relatively expensive Nseries.
The highest resolution camera phone -- 3.2 megapixels -- available in the United States is offered by Verizon Wireless.
