    how do ya find the n95? any crashing or anything? love to get it. had the n80 1 1/2 months before it crashed taking my sim with it

    Battery life is woeful. I keep mine charged at night - surf on the bus into work (1 hour) and with maybe one or two short calls (five minutes in total) it'll have a low battery by 11:30 am. For GPS use you really need it using a with a car charger plugged in.

    It is very advanced though, so much so the GPS advised me of a new bypass for Castleblaney that is only in the process of being dug now.

    But definitely the batytery won't even last a day unless you don't use it at all - otherwise it has it all.

    It's crap as a BT modem. I hope the new firmware has sorted this but I haven't applied it yet as I haven't had time.

    And so have reverted to the USB cable. And I can say that I am flying at the moment using my 3 dataSIM as the train heads for Drogheda ex-Dundalk! Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

    Do you have to pay VAT if you buy from clove.co.uk , It seems like a good enough price

    But you claim it back in same way you might claim it back for anything else. Because you are exempt, not because you are buying from UK and use it in Eire. Unfortunately.

    Templecom on the quays behind Temple Bar are selling the N95 now for Eur769. I know its not cheap but at least it is a local established retailer if anything goes wrong...Still too expensive for me though:(
