It seems Nokia will be launching the crippled version of the N78 smartphone at some point in the future. Apparently, the N78 without WiFi support has been spotted at the FCC’s website. And while we think there could be market for a decent camera smartphone without WiFi (look at the N73), somehow we don’t fully understand why the Finish giant bothered pushing the device with non-American 3G radios and without WiFi through FCC.
Anyway, like it or not, we may see the WLAN-less N78 hitting the markets later in the year. Our U.S. readers, look away — you don’t want this N78 for sure.
UPDATE: The Nokia N78 with U.S. 3G frequencies was spotted at the FCC’s website!

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
