My Nokia 7650 is old and kaputt. Looking for a good replacement that can do mobile blogging as well as the old phone. My pick is the future Nokia N96 that will be coming out somewhere late this year.

 

It’s the predecessor to Nokia N95 which is also a great phone.

The iPhone is also on my dream list but one thing about smart phones is that with great additional features such as web browser, games, WiFi etc, the device itself is not a great phone. Particularly from the poor reception signals it can get. One case mention having 5 bars signals on a normal phone but the iPhone only had 1 bar in the same location. I’ve heard about this problem for the iPhone as well as the Sony Ericcson P1i.

I don’t know about the N96 yet but I trust that it will have great phone features like all the other Nokia models.

Here’s a video demo of the Nokia N96.
