Looking around the web this weekend and there are a number of changes to Nokia websites, in anticipation of the arrival of the N96.
The first is the N-Gage site where the N96 is now listed as a compatible device, and the application software is available for download (even though Nokia have adivsed that the N96 should come preloaded).

Nokia have today announed that they are starting shipping the N96, with an estimated retail price of €550, before taxes or subsidies.
