N97-NAM releasing sooner than expected?

From reading around some Nokia blogs. I found out that there’s a rumor going around that the N97-NAM (North America) version of the phone will arrive June 2nd at a reduced price of $599 instead of the regular listed price of $699. This is a rumor but maybe Nokia is not telling us everything and  are seeming to want competition with the other phones coming soon. The Omnia HD for example and the IPhone are maybe Nokia’s target for this device. (source)
