Nokia has been making a boom with its Lumia 900 news, which obviously sets people talking about the product and its launch date. With this recent pre-launch success, Nokia moves on to promote its Lumia series outside the US. There are several countries targeted by Nokia, the first one of which is Italy, where pre-orders are already available...

It seems like all recent activities of Nokia have been directed at the Lumia 900, particularly at creating a hot discussion around it. And now the Lumia 900 will be available in the international version. Although the version will exclude the LTE Radio (instead it will be packed with Dual channel HSDPA), it will most likely be popular...

While everyone is discussing the success of Nokia and its first Windows Phone Mango-powered smartphone, the Lumia 800, I want to remind you of another high-end smartphone, which came to the fore like a flash. I mean the N9, which got launched at a chaotic time for Nokia, attracted everyone with its design, showed MeeGo is good too and disappeared. Well, I wouldn’t say “disappeared” is the best word describing the current state of the N9, because let’s admit unlike the N9 the rest of the Nokia devices have appeared in the shadow of the Nokia Lumia 800. But at the moment we must recall the Nokia N9 once again, as it is available in Italy and Germany at affordable prices.

Expansys Italy is offering the Nokia N9 16GB for 469 EUR. Some people can say this is a high price, and there won’t be many consumers ready to buy this handset at such a price. But considering MeeGo offers features and performance differing from other platforms, it becomes clear the Nokia N9 deserves it.

Moreover, the Nokia N9 is also available in Germany. Amazon Germany offers the N9 for around 493 EUR for 16GB or 553 EUR for 64GB.
