Nokia N85 with US 3G caught on the FCC!

The Nokia N85 with US 3G has been caught on the FCC’s website. We’ve no doubts the stylish OLED screen-equipped slider will sell like hot cupcakes in Europe and some parts of Asia, but when it comes to the North America, it seems Nokia still struggles to get enough people excited about its products. I can maybe help by adding that the N85 is probably the best NSeries smartphone released to date. Sure, N96 has a larger screen, but in terms of value for money, it’s the N85 that wins, big time. In addition, it has all the gizmos the N96 has, excluding the DVB-H mobile TV receiver, which you can’t use in the U.S. anyway. I would expect to see this baby hitting Nokia Flagship Stores in Chicago and New York anytime soon, and who knows, maybe it even gets announced by AT&T. We can hope, at least…

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.

    Wow thats just greate , I belive the N85 are the best Symbian ever made.

    @Tom

    Totally disagree w/ you.

    I'm not excited about this phone at all! It looks really "cheap & plasticy" to me anyways.

    I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the rumored SE phone running on symbian OS w/ a 12MP camera will have US 3G frequencies!

    That would excite me!

    This phone does not look "plasticy." It looks awesome and I cannot wait for it to come out on AT&T.
