Due an upgrade soon and not being into phones at all im not too sure what to go for, but I saw the Nokia N95 on the gadget show last week and thought it looked quite good. 
 
Anyone got one?  Worth getting? 
 
Cheers in advance

I've been looking at these to. Just been released in black which looks pretty slick. 
 
Couple of mates love them just the battery life is really poor, less than a days worth.

Im incredibly happy with mine, i got the original silver one but the new black one has 8GB built in, and a bigger screen. Battery life isnt too bad, i use mine as an MP3 player a lot and its never run out on me during the day.

Most people do not understand the software or how to use one properly. 
 
They will require software updates

true, but over 80% of our return rates are due to slider wobbly, battery cack(as we tell them) and audio issues. 
 
still a poo phone, but with loads of potential

its not an opinion-its a fact, do you know the reason why orange actually amended their returns policy? (Nokia ahem) 
 
i disgree with nothing out there half as good tbh. the week iv used the w960i i conclude its better than the n95, same memory, better battery, more stable software. 
 
f700 is nice as well, will be using that now. 
 
you have your opinions, i have mine. mine are backed up with my knowledge from dealing with Handset Returns and with commercial awareness and transformation.
