@Dogmann- this is where I have to disagree with you. We should lose this mentality that nokia can do no wrong. This is bad any how you look at it. I bet this phone will be released worldwide after its US launch. What will be of those who bought the n95 six months after launch?

I think u should pick N95. N95 EDGE has speed about 100+ kbps. P1i only has GPRS which is about 36 kbps. Besides, N95 has more features and more application (both free and 3rd party softwares).

Hi all,
Whoa where have i ever said or even implied that Nokia or any manufacturer do no wrong that really is stretching things a bit far i think.
I own no Nokia shares don't get test units or freebies so really have nothing to gain from praising Nokia. I was only saying why i thought this had happened that was all. yes a larger battery and more RAM would of been great on my N95, although not so sure i would of wanted it to get bigger as a result. The extra Ram will of course also be great but to be honest unless i had a SU-8W i would never dream of entering large amounts of text with it's keyboard. It is after all a N series which IMO means it is focused on being a Multimedia smart phone not a business smart phone.
This is actually the one annoyance i do have with Nokia as they insist on slight differences between E and N series devices even if they have the same hardware. For instance my E90 the Music player is not quite as nice as the N series, the volume from the E90's speakers is not as loud as through the N95's which is really not a deal breaker for me. Also the volume through the headset is also not as loud and requires a higher volume setting for the same result. But it is still of great quality and more than loud enough for me.
Video playback is a different situation obviously due to the larger internal screen it is better on the E90 but the cost for this is larger files which i can live with especially as cards are hot swappable and larger cards are due very soon.
Please can we get over this incorrect assumption that i live and breath Nokia and think they can do no wrong as this is just quite simply not true. What is true is that for now Nokia and S60 are what i currently choose to use as they suit my needs best. If and when something else comes along that i feel is better i will switch without hesitation but until then i will stick with my current choice and IMO that is how it should be sticking to just one manufacturer just for loyalty makes no sense to me and doesn't do the user any favours either IMO.
@Dargon Eye
I had got the impression it was indeed growing due to the opening of Nokia Flagship stores and the fact that these stores were stocking recently released handsets with full Nokia warranty and X1387 and Plemix who i believe are if not the same but connected appear to sell a lot of devices into the US and Canada. Maybe it is just the select tech junkies but it does appear to me there are more of them now. But as you are from there i will bow to your superior local knowledge.

fyi.. the n95b version will be the same size.. by removing the lens protector they have managed to squeeze room in for the bl6f... one of my carrier friends saw it.... he also said the slide has been improved and it's really solid now... his was demo.. so take it for what its' worth... but the thickness hasn't changed....

That's why it isn't a good idea it would be like the problems that the US faced with the Euro version not able to run at full steam.. But i wonder if we will be able to use the larger battery? I must say don't like the idea of no lens cover though that seems a little silly to me.
@Boba,
I must say i really have had no battery or for that matter out of memory issues either. So whilst the extras are nice i am still more than happy with my N95 especially it's Music playing abilities as mentioned elsewhere.

Maybe if you could be bothered to read what has been said you would be able to make a more sensible statement instead of just being a Fan Boy and having no regard to what a user actually wants or needs besides a badge.
As this N95 version gives the user 128 Ram same as the P1 a 1200aMh battery larger than the P1, and will work on all the US networks including their 3G services. Which means if the user wants or needs fast Data the P1 fails where the N95 succeeds. If on the other hand he just wants a PDA phone that looks good either will suffice depending on which look he prefers but at least he has options to consider.
We all know what a P1 looks like and the P1 only has a 208mhz processor and 3.2mega pixel Camera no VGA video recording and despite the white paper no built in VOIP or H.264 support either all these makes the N95 a much more powerful and up to date device sorry to burst your little bubble with a reality check.
