When I upgrade from it I'll get whatever the new version of the n95 is

Agreed. Charge it every night. GPS takes a while to lock on but is pretty
unshakeable once it is.
The v11 firmware takes exactly 70 seconds to get a lock. The v12
firmware uses aGPS so is quicker to get a lock.
...If you don't fancy paying for voice nav with the
Nokia maps application, I can thoroughly recommend www.nav4all.com which is
(currently) free.
That looks okay. I installed it this morning just because :) I use
my Garmin StreetPilot 2610 in the car/on the motorcycle as it's
waterproof. I might give nav4all a go to see what it's like one day.
Absolutely must get an unlimited data plan to make the most of it
(e.g. Tmobile WnW).
If one isn't going to have this phone on Web'n'Walk or whatever other
unlimited data plans other networks may use then I don't think you can
use this phone in the way it was designed to be used.
Camera is pretty good.
5 megapixel camera is okay. Another poster in this thread said how
bad the digital zoom was. It's a DIGITAL ZOOM, not an optical zoom
therefore the 'zoom' is only enlarging the pixels on the image - the
camera can't zoom in itself as the lens isn't made to.
Email and internet work v. well.
I use the normal Nokia email client it comes with and I've set it to
check my email every 30 minutes. I also use the standard gmail client
to check my Google Mail from time to time. Both work well.
The internet browser is as good as the Nokia e61's and better. The
introduction of a pointer is a great help and some real thought has
gone into it, plus the phones processor and memory can handle large
images without running out of puff and slowing down. Browsing through
the PROPER flickr.com website (not the mobile version) isn't an issue
and that's pretty graphics heavy. Pretty websites like
www.wow-europe.com are handled in a decent way and the ability to have
the phone shrink the page or zoom it in without a lot of bother is
also a bonus.
Good screen. Loud speaker. Good music player.
Loud SPEAKERS - two stereo speakers on the phone itself.
