The Nokia N97 smartphone has been available for pre-order in the United States since the beginning of May and now it appears we have an official launch date. The Nokia Blog says, citing a “major North American distributor”, that the estimated shipping date of the N97 is June 2. While the GPS-enabled and electronic compass-packin’ smartphone doesn’t look to bad from a technical perspective, a June 2 launch will pit it squarely against expected big announcements from Palm and Apple less than a week later. Palm is expected to launch the Palm Pre June 7 while Apple is rumored to be announcing a 3rd generation iPhone as early as June 8 at the Worldwide Developers Conference.
