If screen size isnt an issue and you want an ultraportable phone, the X10 mini pro is the way to go.

Go for the X10 Pro. I dont see how the N97 beats it in any way other than the larger screen. If you want a compact handset with everything that a phone can have, Mini Pro. If you want a crap touchscreen phone with the worst OS on this planet, N97(a bigger screen comes as consolation).
