Just the Vodafone? Or have have no other operators announced anything?

I was hoping to pinch a N95 8Gb from T-Mobile.

I think Vodafone have got an exclusive on it for a little while.

In that case can you find out for sure? "I think" is fairly vague really, and I wouldn't mind one of these.

We are defiantly having them in the date is going to be around the end of November for the N95 8gb, I'll find out about the N81 release date, i'm not sure how long the exclusive is on the N95.

Is the N82 still around at some point or has it been shelved by Nokia?

It is around and rumoured to be out Q1 next year.

I heard that Orange totally rejected the latest Nokias as they dislike their new online strategy, which conflicts with theirs. This isnt 100% confirmed of course.

edit - have a quick read here - http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/09/18/orange_nokia_moto_snub/

N95 not really suited to most providers at the moment in my humble opinion as some of its best features require a fair amount of data usage.

N95 is best on T Mobile as it is (currently) the best provider for data (at a reasonable price!) with its Web n Walk packages.

Just my opinion.

Couldn't you get a normal n95 and put as 8gb card in it or am I missing something here? :confused:

djcj · 28 Sep 2007 at 00:39

The N95 8Gb edition also has a larger screen, bigger capacity battery, more ram and in a sexy black finish

Ahh, sounds like the one to get then.

My mate who's just got a normal N95 won't be happy

N95 8GB also has no Micro SD card slot like the current generation one, which is a bit odd. I guess with 8GB you wouldn't necessarily need one (I've never taken mine out of my phone). Still, odd.
