Thanks for the review.
i agonised over the choice between E65 and N95. But the prive difference was too much and i went for the E65. It hasn’t been delivered yet and already I was starting to regret it.

Your comments have helped me feel better about my choice.

Hi, just got the N95 8GB and I want to use my copy of tomtom on it. Currently it’s on sd card for my XDA exec. Anyone know how to get it installed and working for my N95? I’ve read that it won’t work with the built in gps but i do have the bluetooth jobbie I used on the XDA.

On my E65 following any amount of time when it is switched OFF , when switching ON again i get a message on screen saying i have ‘VOICE MESSAGES ON LINE 1′ .

I then ring Orange and find there are NO voice messages stored at all.

So…… How do i clear this on screen message ? and if i have ‘line1′ do i have more lines?

Pls let me know if you had similar problems .

Got the N95 here and the iPhone. You’ve already heard all the hype about the iPhone but one thing I do miss in it over the N95 is Bluetooth. Handy way of transferring files about, especially photos from the phone to a laptop. The camera on the iPhone has nowhere near the quality of the N95 but it is much faster and frankly more usable. I’ve missed far too many shots with the N95 lag.

But if a big, clear, bright, colourful screen is your thing then you already know the answer. The browser experience on the iPhone is fantastic over WiFi and with touch-screen scrolling and zooming, navigation is leagues ahead of the N95. First phone I’ve actually sat down on a couch with and used to read email and websites rather than reaching for the laptop on the table.

Now if I could only actually make a call with it
Judging by your mobile app. installation adventures though I’d say you’d miss not being able to load apps on the iPhone?

I love my N95 too, for pretty much the same reasons and with the same pitfall - the battery!
I do use fring, but only for making outgoing calls connected via my Blueface sip account, so I turn it on as I need it.
The latest firmware provides for AGPS (Assisted GPS), which also uses mobile phone masts to fix the position and is therefore much faster.
