    My bad, I presumed it was a touch screen QWERTY keyboard... like the iPhone.

    I just read a review of the kaiser that really confused me, they had a pre-release version that didnt have the touch screen. Had to quickly double check the HTC website to make sure it did. To be honest the N95 and Kaiser are aimed at different markets, most HTCs are sold on business contracts, thats helped by them having the ability to edit MS office documents on the go, rather than just view them. AM currently missing my HTC Universal, managed to kill the screen while playing air hockey Do fancy something a little less bulky, just wish the KAiser had a higher res screen.

    I got it on contract with a decent deal from Davefrost (a forum member).

    PayG is too much mean green - I mean £400 is a tad steep!!!

    Seriously:

    1) It's a beautiful phone
    2) T mobile have been VERY light with the branding - the airbrushed metal on teh front is gorgeous, and the actual menus are still windows esque - no white and pink this time - any HTC users will be chuffed with the camera, and basically, it's all good so far - may remove the T mobile software though and start afresh - I always prefer doing that.

    It comes with a very nice leather pouch for it, a screen guard, usb cables and a spare stylus.
    The laptop effect *Opening it up* like this:

    is simply superb.

    Running an excel sheet with my finances on, and being to update it constantly, even when drunk is so useful - I haven't gone overdrawn once since having HTC phones!


    Fully - fully recommended. Like my old faithful XDA mini-s, but so much better.

    (It also has touchflo - like the HTC Touch, but it isn't as fully implemented).

    Oh and windows mobile 6 is superb.

    Re: Just got my MDA VARIO III (HTC KAISER)

    N95 is just a showcase of Nokia's technology, just because a device is jam packed full of stuff doesnt mean it is the best.

    As stated, why have Nokia tried to develop such a phone which is a 'powerhouse' without any real keyboard? Surely serious users are gonna require this?

    OS on N95 aint the best, people slate WM about things they have no clue about, because they see Windows in the title.

    For me its like this, for people who want a feature packed phone and dont really care about its internals go for the N95. For people who want an equally good phone but with those little touches extra (which make the difference) go for the Kaiser.

    One last thing....Does anyone want to give me a Kaiser for free?

    So you have to carry around a bluetooth GPS depite the N95 having one built in? This means you have another device to keep charged and are going to drain the N95 even faster. Yeah, very convenient!

    On paper the N95 is really sweet, wouldn't buy one though i don't think.
