So much for waiting until Nokia World. Nokia has just announced the Nokia N900. This is Nokia's first device running Maemo 5 and, yes, it has both internet and phone capabilities. I'm calling it a smartphone. This is definitely Nokia's best smartphone to-date - beating out the N97. This handset is confirmed to have: a 3.5-inch WVGA resistive touchscreen display with a 480 x 800 resolution, a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE / WCDMA 900/1700/2100 bands, an ARM Cortex A8 CPU, 32GB of internal memory, a microSDHC card slot, a 5MP AF camera with a dual-LED flash, a Carl Zeiss lens and a cover, an FM transmitter, and WiFi / GPS support.

The Nokia N900 will be hitting "select markets" in October for €500 ($713 USD). Remember it's compatible for T-Mobile USA, so it could get a launch on there in a couple of months. Look out for more information from Nokia next week and, in the meantime, you can enjoy the two videos below.
