Nokia N79

Announced alongside the Nokia N85 on 26th August 2008 this Nokia Nseries appears to be the successor to the none too elderly Nokia N78.

Featuring S60 3rd edition feature pack 2, a 2.4" QVGA screen and a 5 megapixel camera, the Nokia N79's specifications are rather close to the N78, and the bulkier Nokia N82.

The N79 is also available as the N79 Active edition, which comes with a Polar Bluetooth WearLink heart-rate monitor and a custom version of Nokia's Sports Tracker software.
