Also, be aware that in Australia, Telstra have just released their
version of the N95 - the N95-RM120 which is NextG compatible. This is a
good thing ;) I've just upgraded my previous N95 (one of the first in
the country) to the new one. The GPS works better than the original
one, even after updating the firmware in the original one. The main
reason for upgrading, however, is that we need it to be able to access
the NextG system in the centre of Tasmania (no GSM up there) where we
have a shack.

Great phone. I bought mine outright, rather than putting it on a plan.

If anyone wants to buy an N95 here in Australia, I'm selling my original
one, complete with the updated firmware. I'll reset it to factory
defaults.

Any serious offers to NightStalker at fastmail dot fm

I'll be putting it on eBay in the next week or so, but offers prior to
that are welcome.

Sorry for the commercial... ;) But the N95 is a great phone - just make
sure you buy a 2Gb MicroSD card for it to get the most out of it with
music, videos etc.
