The iPhone still has that weak 2-megapixel antique with neither a built-in flash nor manual focus.

Nobody can anticipate, nevertheless, that the Nokia store will ever be able to offer N97 users the variety and variety of mobile phone apps that the iTunes App Store offer iPhone users.
Though prices have yet to be launched, especially in US dollars, it seems clear a minimum of that the Nokia N97, with all its benefits over the iPhone, will likewise cost more to buy than the iPhone.
