Key points about the phone:

• The N82 features a 5 mega pixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics. This is the same camera module as that found in the N95. Instead of an LED based flash the N82 has a Xenon based flash. This is more powerful and should give better picture in low light situations. The camera is also reportedly much faster to start and to capture pictures.
  
  Nokia describe it as the 'best cameraphone on the market' and a 'creditable alternative to stand alone cameras'. The camera also supports shooting video (at VGA resolution at up to 30 fps). There is an on device editor for both still images and video (video editing more basic than N95). Camera specifications are:
  
  
  • CMOS sensor, 5 megapixel (2592 x 1944), Carl Zeiss Tessar lens
  • F number/Aperture: F2.8
  • Focal length: 5.6 mm
  • Focus range 10cm - infinity
  • Macro focus distance: 10-50 cm
    
  
  
• Nokia highlight the sharing capabilities of the phone. The N82 will ship with Share Online pre-installed. This allows for one click upload to Flickr and other web services. There's also the usual XpressPrint support which allows you to print photos via Bluetooth (to supported printers) or via USB (PictBridge compatible printers). You can also order prints online directly from your phone.
  
  
• There's an on board accelerometer to enable automatic rotation of the user interface. When you turn the phone from portrait to landscape orientation the UI will automatically change (user configurable). This is also used to automatically rotate photos to the correct orientation when you capture them.
  
  
• The screen is a 2.4 inch QVGA screen with support for 16 million colours. (This is smaller than the N95 (2.6 inches) and the N95 8GB (2.8 inches), but the phone is smaller overall than both of these devices.
  
  
• The phone weighs in at 114g and has dimensions of 112 x 50.2 x 17.3 mm (90cc in volume). This phone is similar in size and shape to the Nokia N73 (110 x 49 x 19 mm).
  
  
• The phone includes a built in GPS (with support for assisted-GPS to give fast satellite / location lock on times). Nokia Maps is pre-installed and the phone comes with a free trial of the voice guidance portion of Nokia Maps.
  
  
• The phone has a 3.55mm audio jack for listening to music. This is also used for the TV-Out function. The phone ships with a wired headset (HS-43). There are integrated stereo speakers, along with an FM radio, support for both Windows Media DRM and OMA DRM 1.0/2.0 specifications
  
  
• There is 100MB of dynamic internal memory and a microSD (SDHC is supported) card slot for memory expansions. A 2GB microSD card card is included in the sales package (this may vary by market).
  
  
• The phone's connectivity options include quad-band GSM, WCDMA at 2100 MHz (European / Asian bands), and WiFi (802.11 b/g) inlcuding support for UPnP connectivity.
  
  
• The usual Bluetooth support is on board including support for the AVRCP and A2DP profiles. There is no IrDA port.
  
  
• PC connectivity is provided by a micro USB port. The phone supports USB Mass Storage and Windows Media Transfer protocol.
  
  
• The phone uses the Nokia BP-6MT with a capacity of 1050 mAh.
  
  
• The N82 is available immediately in key markets (Europe, Middle East and Asia). The unsubsidised prices in 450 Euros before tax (around £315). You can therefore expect a high street price of around £370-£400 initially (based on 17.5% tax).
