Yesterday Nokia officially announced the N79 and N85 along with further information about N96, expanding the N-series high end device line up.I didn’t make it upto the first Q&A session as there was a power failure but in the 2nd session I was lucky enough get some of my questions answered,officials were very cool and they really did a great job there.As this release was all public I don’t think that I need to write more on it especially after one day of the release, so Just to give a quick skim over the technical specifications of these two new devices the N85 and the N79 check out these official release notes.
