Remember the Truman Show featuring Jim Carey in a live broadcast TV creation 24/7? From this day forth, you can be the star of your own 24/7 TV broadcasting. It’s called lifecasting, for those of you who haven’t yet heard of it. And it’s available on a seriously fashionble phone by Nokia: the N97 and its even more stylish version, the N97 mini.
With lifecasting, you keep your friends nearby even when they’re miles away (or actually, they keep you nearby when you’re miles away, even better, don’t you think?). With the N97 and N97 mini you can lifecast the street address you are at, and your friends can see your location on a map. Go to your favorite place and while you’re at it, share some of the nearby fabulous locations you saved on Ovi Maps. It’s like taking Geo-tagging to the next level. Check out the above video, if you’re not yet hooked yet. Now, be honest, isn’t it the best thing since sliced bread? Or at least since cell phones became a girl’s best friend?
And how about having the smallest world travel companion on earth? The N97 has everything you need to pack and go. Well, except your passport. Oh, and maybe those hot pink Jimmy Choo shoes. This phone has been specifically designed to help you navigate people and places. In addition to global pedestrian navigation, the n97 (mini or not) lets you access premium content from Lonely Planet, Michelin, and Wcities meaning that you’ve literally got the world in your palm And with the new Ovi Maps experience searching, finding, and navigating just couldn’t get any easier. Unless it read your mind (well, there’s something to aspire to, don’t you think?).
So what else is in store for ye Fashionable travelers? The full slideout QWERTY keyboard makes the N97 and N97 mini capable of handling just about everything. And the homescreen is fully customizable so each Nokia N97 is as unique as your fingerprint. Not to mention the thousands of different applications and services you can download from the Ovi Store. From games, videos and podcasts to productivity tools and web services, the Ovi Store is the easiest way to fill the N97’s homescreen with applications that reflect your individual tastes.
Smarts and practicality aside, for a phone to be on my blog, it’s gotta have the looks, too. With its stylish stainless steel cues and its very simplistic, almost buttonless, look - it certainly passes my test. And no need to sacrifice screen size for mini-size style as the N97 mini boasts a 3.2 inch (vs. 3.5 inch of the regular size) touchscreen display. And to the real gem... The N97 mini’s special color, the Garnet is a truly magnificent color (not your usual black and white otherwise available for the N97 phones), taking after the garnet gemstone, which has not only been traded and used in Jewelery for centuries but is also the January birthstone (so if you’re a January born Fashion lover, you really HAVE to have this phone.Well, even though it’s not January and I don’t own any garnet jewelry, I will bid you adieu for this week with Truman’s (Jim Carey) words, “Good morning, and in case I don't see ya, good afternoon, good evening, and good night”!
Enjoy your new Nokia N97 (mini garnet, of course)!
