Underwhelmed
I'm not sure whether if its even worth upgrading anymore, I've had my N82 since its launch, and these new Nokia phones feel uninspired as there isn't the big jump in technology I was expecting. I remember owning the good old N73 and jumping to the N82 when it came out and there was a massive difference in terms of technology. I'll pass on the N86, maybe the N97 would be a better option for me.

Navi-wheel
I was reading the spec sheet on both phones yesterday and it would appear that the N86 doesn't have a touch sensitive navi-wheel like the N85, is this the case? You're comparison of the two phones didn't list this as being absent on the N86.

no 3D hardware accleration, its not worth considering this device...

The percentage of touchscreen phones in Nokia's line-up is extremely low when compared to its main competitors (Samsung, LG, SE). And so it's the percentage of Nokia phones with screen resolution higher than QVGA. To keep releasing even more S60 3rd ed. phones with QVGA screens like the N86 is unconscionable.

It also has some interesting application related to augmented reality (point and find becomes more useful), and adds a very interesting extra to geotagging.

Well, that steals it for me then. N86 may well be my next investment. I too am getting fed up of walking in the wrong direction while trying to navigate on foot lol.

Yeah... this is why I'm eagerly awaiting the Omnia HD - albeit I know it'll only have a short battery life in HD recording mode.

Could you also post direct camera quality comparative shots? At MWC, I wasn't allowed to beam the test photos I've taken to my other devices (unlike with, for example, the showcased, new WinMo devices); that is, I couldn't directly compare the low-light pic quality of it to my N95.

More style related to the N97, yes I see.

Processor difference also
I noticed that Nokia have started introducing new processors in their devices. The old ARM11 running at 369MHz, has been used for some years now, including the N85. Whilst the N86 is stated to be runing at 434MHz.
This could have 2 implications, the difference in the battery time and perhaps faster transistions+ photo processing?
Well I hope so.

I had seen on some sites listing a digital compass for the N86. Is this true? That would be another great sensor to have if it can "compass-tag" photos.
