I would advise checking out a N95 but with two provisions one don't use the GPS absolutely pointless IMO.


Why do you say that? Is it because of the map data (if so, what town, country have you used it), or was the GPS hardware?

Thanks,

Hi Masseur,
Only thing to warn you though is once you see and use S60 you may never look at UIQ again. I know its a big step but one i have found to be very worthwhile.

I would like to see what Masseur has to say 'bout it

I have 2 phones... one with uiq3 and other with s60 3d edition. Its dificult to say who i like more. Both have pros and cons. I think UIQ3 is slower, more buggy and less stable than S60 3d edition at the moment, but i love the touch screen and the user interface of uiq3 phones.

@Waka

My reason for this opinion is quite simple
a) Built in GPS is inferior in both power and sensitivity both important factors in a GPS receiver.
b) Tom Tom 6 is the class leader in Sat Nav mapping and directions it has no equal as is relatively cheap and simple to install
c) The built GPS in the N95 will not work with 3rd party software you will need to use Nokia's free maps but there chargeable voice directions and i very much doubt they will be as good as TT6.

With my set up i don't use Traffic updates and the speed camera databases can be found all over the web for free so have no running costs besides charging the GPS battery.

@miguel82

You say it is hard to decide and that UIQ is slower less stable and buggy for now, it's already 7 months how much longer are you going to wait for ever? The only plus is touchscreen which if you can't live without is the price you have to pay to have it. When i decided to leave UIQ the lack of touchscreen was what concerned me most. 8 months later i haven't looked back despite having a M600 and TyTN but that's just me and what i have found, not saying it's right for you or everyone.

Currently there is NOTHING (rumor or otherwise) from SE that can match N95. So I dont see what is the point of this thread??
