Nokia N85 Slides Open For Playboy’s March 2009 Issue
I visited my parent’s home today and noticed the Playboy March 09 issue on my dad’s desk. I heard they write good articles, so I decided to skim through. Lo and behold, I see the Nokia N85 on a segment about devices we use for computing anytime, anywhere. I took a snap with my own Nokia N85 so you can see the spread.
Article Excerpt:
How about this for a paradox: The most exciting segment of the laptop category involves devices that aren’t really laptops at all. Expect to see more of these in years to come as we all get used to computing anytume, anywhere… Today only a select few people carry them, but they’re easy to spot.
and here is Playboy’s description of the Nokia N85:
The iPhone may be the smartphone homecoming queen, but for years Nokia has been offering us the cute girl in the library. You know, the one who’s actually getting stuff done. Not only is the N85 available unlocked for use with multiple carriers, it boasts WiFi, a 3G cellular data connection, and GPS, plus a decent camera that can also record video. Then there’s the FM radio for listening on the go and a built-in transmitter for car radio.

That description can’t get any more accurate! The other devices featured were the iPhone 3G and Samsung Qiex. I’m glad they chose to feature the Nokia N85 instead of the current flagship, the N96. They must’ve read about the 5 reasons why the N85 is better than the N96.
