Nokia N96 Comes With Music Edition launches in the UK

As has been expected for a few weeks now, Nokia have launched a Comes With Music version of their N96 handset, in the UK. The N96 now joins the N95 8GB, and 5310, to come with the Comes With Music service. The N96 Comes With Music edition will sell for £540/€570/$800, which is approximately £60 more than the non-Comes With Music N96.

The Comes With Music service lets you download, for up to a year and keep an unlimited number of songs, for free, which can be played on the handset itself, as well as the user’s computer.

Nokia N96 gets Indian pre-launch

Nokia's Indian outpost has announced that it'll be offering the hotly anticipated top-of-the-line N96 there starting next month, and in the meantime, about 2,000 stores across the country have been authorized to start accepting pre-orders. By and large, this N96 seems to be the same one everyone else will be getting -- but one India-exclusive feature will be Wave Secure, an S60 app designed to give owners some semblance of peace of mind by backing up their data to the cloud and enabling device tracking if their precious payload is lost or jacked. It's a hot phone, no question about it -- 16GB of onboard storage plus the capability for microSD expansion is nothing to sneeze at -- but without a 3G network to latch onto, seems like it could be a tough sell if the price isn't right.
