This is a compilation of the many hours of video we shot during our N97 24/7 Tour, edited without sound for the big wrap-up party in NYC. I added some appropriate music to it for you… The party starts at about 15 seconds in!
This will be my last post about last month’s N97 24/7 Tour of the USA. And it’s a biggy.
Look, let’s stop beating around the bush with this… It should be fairly obvious from the photo above who Nokia’s after with their flagship N97. It also can’t be denied that in North America, at least, Apple’s iPhone is everywhere.
My goal with this post is to highlight the key differences between the two and let you draw your own conclusions. Along the way, I’ll be pointing out what Nokia could have done (and can still do) better.
So it looks like a grand total of 765.75 MB of data was used by yours truly on his N97 24/7 tour across the USA. That’s probably an inconsequential number to my new American friends and their unlimited mobile data plans, but had I not been loaned an AT&T SIM Card for the trip I would have had to pay for all those ones and zeroes myself — and at 3¢ per kilobyte I’d be on the hook for almost $230 CAD from my carrier!
(With apologies to The Rovers — wait, who the hell cares what they think about anything?)
So last night WOM World/1000heads and Smart Fusion threw the highly-anticipated finale to our 2-week tour of the USA at THE XCHANGE, with Nokia footing the bill.
