General Comments
I got a Nokia N91 handset from my recent visit to Tokyo, where the insiders at Electronic Gadgets showed me the latest model in Nokia's "N" range of Music mobile phones. Not yet commercially available, I was given a sampler (which may differ from end product in the Pacific) which I used for a couple of days.
My first impression about the phone was the weight. I have used heavier phones (Nokia 7710) but they justify the weight with the size. The N91 isn't very bulky, but it's heavier than the neanderthal Series 60 Nokia 7610.
Regarding the extras.. Nokia teamed up with acoustic industry leaders such as Bose, Sennheiser, JBL, and Harman Kardon to provide a range of high-quality accessories for the N91, including noise cancelling headphones and desktop speaker systems. Though I didn't get to try them on.. they seem to be great enhancements to Nokia's already impressive line of Nokia original Enhancements.
The operating System in Series 60, but uses a proprietary music software for the mp3 playback. This is where Nokia shines over other MP3 mobile phones and stand-alone MP3 players. The software is very user friendly and offers great features.
Concluding, I have to say that Nokia has come up with an excellent Mp3 Mobile phone. While returning back the phone to the test centre, I inquired about the price, which they said will be around 500-550 USD. Expensive, but worth it. After all, where else will you get an excellent MP3 player with a 2megapixel Camera and which lets you TALK!!
