I can get a new device on my Orange contract, and I don't have to pay. I just need to choose one.
I need GPS first and foremost, but I'd also like to play movies and my music from MP3/WAV/Whatever on it, and ideally have wireless internet access. Also battery life is pretty important to me. I don't care whether it has a touch screen or not, don't care about radio, don't care about outlook because I use gmail, don't care about anything at all really. It's just those 5 main things: GPS / Movies / Music / WiFi / Battery.
My choice isn't everything available, but still fairly broad. I looked at HTC devices and the something cruise I loved but isn't on my listThere was a brand new one which got horrible reviews, and then there is the TyTN II which was better but still sounds bad to me. User reviews say both music playback and the microphone for talking to people are far too quiet - in a serious way. And that it cracks too easy, buttons fall out, far too slow, terrible battery life, annoying password protection, limited and bad quality video playback, etc... the list is endless.
I looked at a few others, and then after reading about several phones, I realised that everyone kept referring to one phone as being the daddy. That phone is the Nokia N95 8gb. The specs look amazing and the reviews look good, although mixed (like all reviews I suppose..).
I won't be able to wait for the N96 unfortunatelyBecause I need to make my decision on Monday.
So what should I get? I figured the N95 would be my choice because it has a nice high quality screen for watching movies, does a good job with music, has wifi, and has GPS. But I just wasn't completely sure because some say the battery life sucks and I don't know how well it does GPS compared to say TomTom 6 on Windows Mobile which I've seen and works well. I am assuming it's just as good, and I'm also assuming the battery is equally crap on all these devices. But I just wanted to check that there's nothing definitely better for me.
Thanks![]()

Most of them just have 65k. Although I think even that is enough. so long as it's fast and bright enough.
