Nokia N92: TV on the Go

Nokia N90 was my dream phone till I saw the N92. Simply put, It Rawks! The N92 is a TV Phone (height of convergence!) with a mind blowing resolution and the output looks really great on its 2.8 inch display. It can open both ways - In Portrait mode and in landscape mode, has a 2 Megapixel camera (some would say it's not a big deal, Samsung D600 and even one of the LG handsets priced at around 17K in India can boast of that currently). It has Wifi connectivity, Bluetooth, Infra red and most of the features of an advanced PDA. The TV transmission is based on DVB-H which is a digital standard for receiving TV signals from terrestrial transmitters aimed specifically at mobile devices. It offers a watch time of up to four hours and has the ability to record live TV and do an on-demand 30-second replay. It also an XpressMusic device, harbouring a music player with support for MP3, WMA and AAC formats as well as a memory card slot allowing for up to 2 GB cards. Also on the slate is dual stereo speakers and the ability to connect a stereo headset, as well as an integrated stereo FM radio!!



The Nokia N92 is slated for commercial availability in the EMEA region in mid-2006 in countries where DVB-H transmissions are available. The estimated retail price will be in the 600 Euro range (Not less than 35K in India, IF and when it gets launched). People in India will have to wait a little longer, but the device is definitely worth a wait. BTW the device looks a bit bulky, but with features like those who's complaining :)
