Nokia N97 (32 GB) Cell Phone

The N97 enters the fray stomaching 32GB of on-board storage , and can take up to another 16GB via microSD, enabling it to become a portable multi-media computer with 48GB in your pocket. Of course Nokia wants you to abuse this space with music, movies, photos and N-Gage games, and as such has worked hard to ensure the N97's battery is up to the task - it promises to kick out up to 37 hours of music and 4.5 hours of video.

Has anyone ever released an IT product that PC Authority could not fault?
It's no wonder people have such high expectations when nothing is good enough to get a review without at least one flaw.
