Title: Nokia's N96, anyone got one? what are they like?
Post by: Danny on 29 September 2008, 16:03:55
i know i'm probably gonna get a few negative replies from those who hate symbian OS, and those who hate nokia in general ;) but i have an N95 8gb which has proved flawless for me so far and i know a few others like them

just wondering if anyone's got the new n96 yet or anyone knows plenty about them that would recommend as an upgrade?

I used to be a Nokia man, but for the last few years, I think they have lost the plot.

They make crap firewalls as well ;D

N96 hasn't been released yet until the 1st.
From what I have seen they are almost the same as the N95 but have built in freeview and a bigger screen.

Really.....I guess that has nothing to do with almost all the Uk Ericsson employees having 3 mobile buisness contracts.....

I like my N95 but will probably go with something with a bit better email and website access (after finding it incredibly difficult to post on here using it, and at the time desperately begging for a cup of tea from anyone in the locality :P).  SE's drive me mad with their T9 - would give me a nervous breakdown.., nokia is much more sensibly arranged lol.

looked at the specs a while back and apart from freeview which aint going to be available for a while ? i did not think it would be better than the 95? However when mobile freeview is turned on i might be tempted. Other models available by then tho. Ill go have a peak. Ta.
