The Nokia N78 has a 3.2 megapixel unit with a Carl Zeiss lens, autofocus and an LED flash. This combination of features has proven to be very capable in the past.

Video capture is VGA resolution at 15 frames per second, not quite as good as some other recent Nokias, but still pretty good. N78 comes with a multimedia player capable of handing MPEG-4, MP3, WMA and AAC clips. The Nokia N78 comes with a useful FM transmitter, so it is possible to connect it to a car stereo using just the radio.

Nokia N78 has just over 3 hours talktime on 3G with up to 13 days standby time. This is helped by a large 1200 milli amp hour BL-6F power cell. The N78 features up to 24 hours of audio playback time.

The price is much cheaper than N96 which has a better camera and more conventional layout, but lacks WiFi or an FM transmitter. Nokia say that the N78 will be available during Q2 2008.

    GPS is the way to future. I see in next 20 years or so , may be no vehicle in our countries will be without gps. However , cost is still a problem , specially in developing nations. But I am sure , with increase in demand the cost will come down. Nice blog.
