Nokia N97 Powered By An ARM11 Processor?

This is currently under “rumor” status, but it’s still something that seems to put a little blemish on Nokia’s new baby, The N97. As the rumor goes, Nokia’s N97 will be running the same Texas Instruments ARM11 processor as the N95, albeit clocked at a higher speed. This is a little disappointing, especially since most of us were hoping that Nokia would use the newer TI OMAP 3 chip, which is better, especially in terms of battery life. The rumor adds that Nokia’s N97 will be as fast as or faster than Nokia’s E71. Nokia have stated that the N97 will have 430 hours of GSM standby time, and 6.6 hours talktime.
