Finnish mobile phone maker Nokia listed a few days ago its high-end smartphone Nokia N97 as available for pre-order in various markets around the world, with a price tag set at $700, yet now we learn that mobile users in the United States can order the device
in advance while only paying $524 for it.

Moreover, it seems that those who will take advantage of the pre-order offer will also be able to enjoy a Bluetooth headset Nokia BH-703, which will come for free with the handset, although it would normally cost $85 to be purchased. The Nokia N97 is available for US users in two colors, Black and White.

For what it's worth, a $175 discount from the previously announced $700 price tag doesn't sound too bad for a device like the Nokia N97, but it is somehow expected to have surfaced. One more thing that needs to be mentioned is that those who typed in the promotional code CARTP409N could see the price of the phone going down to $454, though it seems that the company fixed the promotion and the price will remain at $524.

Furthermore, the mobile phone maker offers a wide range of accessories for the handset, so those who would like to pre-order it will also be able to add some of the “toys” to their chart, so that they receive them along with the handset. You should check with Nokia USA online to see what is available.

The Nokia N97 is expected to start shipping as soon as July 2009, and it should also become available for users in Europe, as the Mobile phone carrier Vodafone has been already reported to launch it that month. Those who would like to learn more on the handset can check with our previous coverage on it, as detailed specifications have become available a few days ago.
