My N95 can do everything that can do plus it has a 5 megapixel camera

I'M NOT BRAGGING AT ALL *runs*

Edit: Well obviously not touch screen but yah.

Yes but..
1) It's a nokia
2) It runs symbian as opposed to WM6 which is pants.
3) the "5mp" camera isn't as good as the 3.2 camera on the Sony cameras
4) It's slow and crashes
5) It's ugly and large

I hate nokia's so that may be biased.

i soooooooooooooo want one of these.

I need to find out when my current O2 contract is up and then decide if i get a HTC unlocked one and try and get a discounted t-mobile deal, or just get one from t-mobile.

I hate the t-mobile branding btw

N95 has a GPS reciever, but can it actually run decent GPS software. the Kaiser comes with TomTom 6

I disagree with everything there, apart from 4).. it does sometime slow down, and it has randomly just restarted occasionaly.. apart from everything else I disagree. Even the camera is amazing. I'm certainly not a camera expert but it can do amazing macro shots and just general shots too.

See this for examples.. http://www.flickr.com/cameras/nokia/n95/

It doesn't come with TomTom6 but you can get it for it.

Bazzled is that on contract or PAYG? I'm kind of contemplating it on PAYG at the moment.

How do you type emails on the N95? The lack of a keyboard must be a right pain in the elbow.

Obviously for writing emails it will be a pain because you will have to use the normal numeric pad, but it won't be any harder than using a touch screen. You can get a mini bluetooth QWERTY keyboard for the N95 though.

The HTC Kaiser has a full qwerty keyboard so I dont see the relevance of the touchscreen comment?
