Except that the Surge doesn't have Wi-fi or GPS does it? GPS may be optional but Wi-fi is an absolute must for blogging on the go!!

Hey Trent,

Have you ever thought of getting the Nokia Surge, it is kinda like a N97 with a good QWERTY and E-Series functionality!

Hi Trent,

I don't think you needed to modify your criticism of the N97. It's all very well for others to argue that 'the N97 isn't meant to be an E-series device', but the truth is, it has a built-in qwerty keyboard... and you don't need that for a device that is 'just for multimedia'. It seems self-evident to me that the keyboard and limited office suite included mean that Nokia is trying to tempt the 'mobile office' segment of the market into buying their flagship handset - as well they might given that Apple has introduced a range of business-friendly innovations to the iPhone and iPod Touch.

As such, I think that you had very realistic expectations for the N97 and I think your disappointment with it is fully justified.

I was 100% behind your original review and I'm glad to have heard your frank opinion. I will not be buying an N97... like you, I will be thinking hard whether Nokia has what I need at this point in time.

Keep up the good work!
