The Nokia N97 is a very much talked about smartphone and it seems there are still stock delays when it comes to T-Mobile, O2 and Orange.
Sales are picking up very well since its release two-weeks ago in Carphone Warehouse, Phones 4u and 3 stores, but T-Mobile and Orange are still waiting for the device, O2 will NOT be stocking the device. O2 are sticking with the iPhone 3GS and the Palm Pre which will keep them busy we are guessing.
Orange staff has been told according to Trading Markets that the Nokia N97 will not be stocked for another 3-weeks which is a long time, T-Mobile staff have been told that they will be getting stocks in two-weeks time.
The demand for the N97 is huge and these firms really need to be getting stock as soon as possibly whilst the buzz for these handsets are still high.

Many of you and of course our readers have mentioned the problems with overheating, the debate over the overheating issue with the white Apple iPhone 3GS is immense and many of us want to know what the problem is.
Well it seems the debate is over, many users of the iPhone 3GS blamed the case discoloration on overheating and that it got a lot worse when Apple updated the heat advisory for the iPhone 3GS, well now Apple are saying that the discoloration is nothing to do with overheating but down to the case itself.
A French website called FrenchiPhone.com is claiming that the discoloration happens on the white iPhone 3GS when it is exposed to heat, here are some answers according to CNET that may help you understand:
- After numerous calls to Apple technical service and maintenance of contact with a level 3 (engineer) the problem seems to come not from a hot 3GS but contact with some covers! This was evident by ourselves on a device with a small sticker (a warning not to listen to music too loud) remained stuck; part of the hull below remained white.
- A simple solution to the problem is to clean the back of the iPhone with alcohol, tested by myself I can confirm that it works and reassure you it is safe for your precious.
What do you think about the above problem?

Yes Sprint is grabbing with both hands and hugging dearly Wi-Fi in all its major devices, we have told you about the BlackBerry Tour smartphone which you can get for $199.99, this handset features support for both CDMA and GSM networks.
Many BlackBerry Tour reviewers have complained about his handset not having support for Wi-Fi connections, now this could be good news or bad news because it means it could indeed hamper Sprint’s Tour sales this year if you decide to wait to 2010 for the Wi-Fi version.

The latest news comes from Sprint Nextel where they announced last week that they will be transferring operations of its networks to Ericsson the Swedish telecommunications equipment maker.
This new seven-year agreement has been valued at around $5 billion which is a staggering amount and a free substantial amount of that money will be used to develop new products and improve network coverage and quality. Mr. Elfman said in a conference ?Sprint will remain in full control of the network, we own it. We?re not selling it?.
This deal would mean that 6,000 Sprint employees will be transferred to a subsidiary owned by Ericsson that is based in Overland Park, Kan., close to Sprint?s headquarters there. This new deal will mean that they can keep up with the likes of Verizon and AT&T, Sprint shares has risen 17 cents, around about 4 percent to $4.48. For more information please visit NY Times.
