All About Symbian at the UK N97 and N86 Launch

Published by Ewan Spence at 12:08 UTC, June 19th 2009

Rafe's been sending back some pictures and thoughts from the UK launch of the Nokia N97 and N86 in the Nokia store on Regent's Street through both Twitter (@aas) and Flickr (RafeB). No huge queues at the store, but plenty demo units, augmented reality units and he's wondering if the N86 is getting lost in all the lust for the N97.

LOL the Apple Store is reflected on the window. Maybe that's why the 3 people riot to buy a Nokia LOL

The photos aren't from America, in the UK people don't go crazy over the iphone as they can recognize pre-historic specs when they see them.

The photos I’ve seen of the N97’s virtual phone (dialling) pad, only show numbers, and not alphanumeric keys e.g. 2 ABC.

Is this true? If so, it would be difficult when you make phone calls to automated systems and they request you press the number that corresponds to the forth character of your password.

LG made this mistake on some of their touch phones.

Thanks

I've only ever needed to use this once, but luckily I went to school and I know how to count.
