Default When is the Nokia N96 out??

As title really,

have the N95 and despite the dismal battery life i get from it. (its ran out a few times when ive needed it most) its been a superb phone and unlike most others, its survived almost a year without breaking.
Alas, my contract runs out in june so its time to find the replacement,
keep hearing in the papers and mags about the N96 and its what i now want.

however, O2 shops cant give me a date for its release, the mags say summer/autumn.

Does anyone know a rough date so i can try and keep my contract ticking over till i can upgrade to the N96

Cheers

There is a software upgrade that prolongs the battery life I am sure.

Stu MSD knows this.

Comedy dan: im not too bothered now about the life.

V20 or V21 are the 2 versions which vastly improve battery life and vastly improve the speed of the phone as it frees up a lot of the RAM used by the phone.

Well worth it IMO.

what a pile of shit!

I have an N95 and have had every sort of "flagship" Nokia model before it and NOT ONCE have any of them ever reset or had any problem of any sort

I'd never touch any phone that wasn't a Nokia, they're just so user-friendly and piss on every other phone out there
