Nokia N93i to be released in USA?

Here’s something that jumped out at me when I was doing a quick check of Nokia’s USA site: the N93i now appears on the “Compare Phones” page and is listed as coming soon.

This is most interesting because the N93i has been around (internationally) for well over a year. It’s also a triband 900/1800/1900 phone with WCDMA 2100 (not supported in the USA), so connectivity is definitely an issue here.

My guess is the phone will only be available in the (two) Nokia Flagship stores. The N93i’s tribanded-ness means it won’t be showing up on AT&T, but Nokia has yet to bring a single Nseries device to the likes of T-Mobile. (AT&T got the lackluster N75)

For those who aren’t familiar with the Nokia N93i: it’s a single-hinge flip phone with an emphasis on the camera (3.2 megapixel, Carl Zeiss, 30 fps video recording, TV out). Thanks to the single hinge, the inner display can be folded into a very cool landscape mode for watching movies or gaming.
