Nokia N93 Golf Edition

Friday, August 4th, 2006

N93Golf Last week I drooled over the N93 after reading Rafe’s AllAboutSymbian review of the phone. We’ll now I am going to give my insurance broker father and brother a reason to drool as well (ok, me as well). As Darla Mack and Mobledia reported a couple days ago Nokia just released a special “Golf Edition” of the phone which enables you to capture your golf swing, analyze and improve your game by split screen swing comparison and other advanced analysis tools via a special Pro Session Golf application embedded into the phone.

The golf edition even comes with a ready to use golf-tailored viewfinder that instantly captures a player’s swing from the correct angles and distances. The system will even allow my brother and father share ideas, swings, drawings, tips, lessons and opinions, both face-to-face and remotely via e-mail and multimedia messages (MMS).

When the guy at Nokia told me about special golf stuff at the Mobile Monday Global Summit in Helsinki I thought he just meant the 3D game for the N93. I dod not realize he meant this… wow!

Tell you what Nokia, if you send me one of these phones I will take it to club with me and show it off to all the rich golfers so that they will order one as soon as they are done with their 18 holes… is it a deal?

Is Nokia going to start making special edition phones for all types of things… I think their is a greta market for this especially as smartphones start getting smarter.

Anyways, the best review on this is definitely Darla Mack’s so check it out!
