Espoo, Finland - The highly anticipated Nokia N97, Nokia's flagship
mobile computer, will begin selling in June in more than 75
countries. Along with a tilting 3.5" touch display, QWERTY keyboard
and a fully customizable home screen, the Nokia N97 will offer
instant access to the full range of Ovi services.

"The Nokia N97 is an important step towards our vision of delivering
a highly personalized Internet experience," said Jonas Geust, Vice
President and head of Nokia Nseries. "Fuelled by a multitude of
music, maps, games, media and applications via Ovi, the Nokia N97
transforms the Internet into an experience that's completely tailored
to the tastes and interests of its owner."

The Nokia N97 is Nokia's first device to feature a personalizable
home screen, which can be customized with a range of widgets which
bring live information directly to the device. These widgets include
key social networking destinations like Facebook and Hi5, news
services like the Associated Press, Bloomberg and Reuters, as well as
shopping and weather information. The Nokia N97 is the first device
to ship with the Ovi Store, which offers easy access to applications,
games, videos, podcasts, productivity tools, web and location-based
services, and much more. Ovi Store has paid and free content from a
range of global and local content providers and developers, including
Paramount Pictures, Facebook and Qik, as well as a selection of
Twitter applications.

Enjoy your upgrades
The beauty of this Nokia device is that taking it out of the box is
just the beginning. As with any computer, people can constantly
improve and refresh their Nokia N97 with new features, functions and
fixes so they can do even more with the device. An exciting roadmap
of new features and functions is planned to roll out in the second
half of 2009.

Entertainment ensured
The Nokia N97 also has direct access to the huge catalogue of music
in the Nokia Music Store. With multiple high-speed connectivity
options and 32GB of storage (up to 48GB using a microSD card) it is
possible to directly download and store tens of thousands of songs on
the handset. And you can listen to your favourite music on the Nokia
Bluetooth Stereo Headset BH-905, which Nokia also launched today.
This headset brings crystal clear sound, eliminates background noise,
and is the ideal accessory for listening to music and making calls on
the Nokia N97, as well as being compatible with a diverse range of
other mobile and music devices.

High-quality images and video clips at 30 frames per second (fps) can
be captured using the 5 megapixel camera with integrated Carl Zeiss
optics. Images can also be geo-tagged to specific locations and
shared instantly with friends or uploaded online via Ovi Share,
Twitter or Flickr.
