Nokia's N82: GPS, 5MP Camera, Wi-Fi, 3G…

Nokia's latest multimedia phone packs in a mouthwatering set of features. Naturally, the N82 is only shipping in Europe (for now, at least).

Announced today in Finland, this candy-bar style, Symbian OS-powered update of the loaded N95 puts just about every phone we have in the U.S. to shame—including the mighty iPhone. Read 'em and weep: you've got quad-band GSM for world calling, support for speedy HSDPA networks (hello, streaming video and music), Wi-Fi, A-GPS coupled with Google Maps for turn-by-turn directions, a 5-megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics and a Xenon flash...shall I continue? OK, then: a 2.8-inch QVGA display, support for a smorgasbord of video formats (including MPEG-4 and H.264), compatibility with the Nokia Music Store and the soon-to-be-reborn N-Gage gaming service, and a 2GB microSD card. Phew.

This being a Nokia phone, it shouldn't come as any surprise that it ships in Europe first, for 450 euros. However, if history is any guide, I'm guessing that the N82 (or a version of it, anyway) will make its way to the United States by the end of the year or in early 2008. Expect to pay a premium, though; the N81 slider, announced back in August, went for $500 and up, and the N82 will likely come with a similarly steep price once it bows in the States.

    Only the touch screen is missing, but otherwise I now want this instead of the N95.

    if anything, it isn;t a candy bar n95. its an update to the n73, not a new version of the n95
