When to expect Nokia N79 and N85 in stores
Since posting a price check for Nokia N79, N85 and N96 a month ago, I have kept an eye on information about prices and availability for these three handsets. The N96 has of course started shipping and the N79 and N85 were both announced to begin shipping in October. In the past few days, several online retailers in Scandinavia have updated their N79 and N85 product pages with more specific availability dates.
Prices have been updated too. When I last checked prices, the N79 was priced at 614 $ on average, the N85 at 749 $. Those prices have by now been cut by somewhere between 40 $ and 55 $.
But now for some availability information. In general, Norwegian retailers appear more willing to list – and update - availability information. Here is what I have been able to dig up:
N79
elprice.no expects to have units in stock by 28th of October (date labeled as ‘unconfirmed’).
mpx.no expects to have units in stock by the 31st of October.
N85
Salgsbutikken.dk expects to have units in stock by 25th of October.
CDON.COM expects to have units in stock by 24th of October.
mpx.no expects to units in stock by 28th of October (date labeled as ’confirmed’).
komplett.no expects to have units in stock by 27th of October (date labeled as ‘unconfirmed’).
