Rumors of the 8GB Nokia N95 are not exagerated. I have to admit, info about this
device is tough to locate on the Nokia website although there are many images
posted in the press area (no wonder people have a hard time buying this awesome
device!)
I wish I could tell you more about the availability on this elusive device,
however, if you have a Nokia shop near you (New York, Chicago) you might see
this cool device for sale. Like the traditional N95 its a quadband World phone,
complete with integrated GPS, loads of cool apps to leverage you location
information and memory - lots of it. With the supported 8GB card (supplied with
this one) you can store all kinds of apps, videos, music and as of today you can
try ALL the N-Gage
games for free! N-Gage has matured from a device (mine got stolen from my
car a couple of years ago - want some games??) to a platform. More on the 8GB
N95 can be found (I think) at nseries.com or nokia.com (see also
the N95 support site) - actually,
nseries.com has a page devoted to this unit, however, it doesn't appear to be
available in the US yet... sorry! A tip.. Nokia, to sell even more of these
units maybe bundle some integrated GPS supported apps on the deck that work
without the need for doing loads of research, for example, send and MAP the
photo to flickr, Google maps (like a MyMap) and try a couple of cool colors like
Pink and maybe even a "Trimblish" yellow with a ruggedized, grippy shell.. that
would sell! This device appeals to mobile field force workers and outdoor
enthusiasts, maybe try marketing to them!
