Announced to ship but, no show. Six handsets, six delays, Nokia has gone on record regarding the shipping delays on the N Series and E Series devices.

Software issues, it seems have been holding up Nokia from releasing the much anticipated handsets.

The latest update for the Symbian OS seems to be the trouble in particular, although Nokia is not being specific.

According to Mobileburn, The Nokia N91 is expected to ship first. The Nokia N71 and the N80 are expected to folllow, being released by the months (April) end.

The Nokia E61, which is expected to go toe-to-toe with the Motorola Q has no committed release date. As BigBerries, reported last week the Motorola Q itself is experiencing delays.
