yeah i have the N95 and love it hasn't missed a beat but as others have said sometimes the gps takes a few mins to locate your postion..would recommend the 8GB version simply because it will have less bugs in it also go with 3 or vodafone

I have n95, updated software. no problems... gps is pretty accurate too. Set the cruise control to 100km and the GPS said I was moving at 100 too. I was suprised by that.

had mine (8gb) for a couple of months now, brilliant. With the software updates (debrand it first to get the actual latest, rather than the latest your phone company wants you to have) and the latest Nokia maps (download the maps too) hold it horizontal and mine picks up gps within 20seconds. It got me all the way around the french alps and the stages of the monte carlo rally two weekends ago. Other best bit would have to be the built in accelerometre, loads of software apps available to utilise it - like shake the phone to snooze your alarm clock, flip it over to put it into silent if it calls while your in a meeting, auto rotate the screen display 90degrees when you rotate the phone, flick through photos albums by tilting the phone. Eat that Iphone

How robust are they? I tend to destroy phones at a rate of knots.
