We scoped out the N79 back at CTIA, and were amply impressed by all the features packed into the slim candybar form (GPS, Wi-Fi, 3G, 5 megapixel Carl-Zeiss camera), and are all happy to see it get through the FCC ringer. North American launch in the near future, maybe? If you’re waiting for this one, be sure to check out the video walkthrough.
