Nokia 97 Will Be on Vodafone From July


Today I got news I’ve been waiting for some time now. Vodafone UK has just updated their website and confirmed that the glorious Nokia 97 will be available on their network from July. Since I first heard that Nokia would be coming out with a touch screen-QWERTY combination, I have been scratching around for every bit of news about the product and when it would be out in the UK. So far, it’s been five months of looking on gadget blogs, youtube hands-on videos and checking with my current network, 3 mobile, for more details about the phone and when it would be available.

I even stuck with my Nokia E61 and painfully resisted an upgrade to the sleek E71 just until I was sure which network will carry the N97 and at what price. Now that Vodafone has officially confirmed a July date, it appears my days with 3 mobile are sadly over. I had high hopes that 3 would have the N97 because they are a great network, but after all these months waiting and seeing mouth-watering reviews and product demos of the N97, I’m throwing loyalty out of the window.

Now, it’s just to hope Vodafone has a good pocket friendly deal.

Update (2 Sept 2009): Here’s a  review post describing my experience with the phone after two months
