@ rhino,
Yeah, same here.
If I have a secondary phone that's not touchscreen, then fair enough.
But my primary phone will (hopefully) always be touchscreen.

@GUCCI: With all those nice new features, the question that potential N96 buyers need to ask themselves is : "So what's the average talk and standby times?"
@da wanqsta: Saw a couple of Motorola's releases and it doesn't take a business science major to see why the company is losing money. Too many meaningless low-end phones and not much innovation in the areas where the company should be challenging the likes of Blokia,
and Samsung.

Gucci,I've had first hand experience with DVB-H technology.2 years ago M-net had a 1 year test where some lucky MNET subscribers were randomly chosen to test the technology on Sagem DVB-H capable/enabled phones,free for one year.Its was gob-smackingly gob-smacking.They had 16 channels to play with.All I can say everytime time I connected without a glitch and it played TV without any delay in picture or sound.Real-time.Crystal clear.I think I mentioned this a while back Wanga.MNet/DSTV have been ready for this technology for 2-3 years now just waiting for cell phones to catch up.BUT remember it was a free trial so my buddy could go ballistic with it.How much will it cost you to watch TV on your cell-phone (suscription ect) Is it worth it.And dont compare that Vodacom free TV thing for R29/month.These were all the top channels (sports*3,MNET,MM1,BBC/Sky/CNN ect)

@ Wanqa
Very true, SE tend to always one up NOKIA in the camera department hey, i had no idea a phone could have that. Touchscreen is realy not for me, the TyTN made me decide that, but yep each to their own.
@ Brix
So true! Im shocked to see a 950mah battery in the N96, same weak battery used in N95 Classic, i dont care what NOKIA say they've done to optimize batt life the N96 won't last long with heavy use, the N78 got a 1200mah battery, WTF were they thinking!?
@ Hobbs
Sounds great!
but with a 950mah batt how long wil the N96 last while watching TV is what im wondering.
Here i go being indecisive, i think il settle for N82-Black, N78 doesnt have an accelerometer, and im sure we may find a GPU missing as well, DAM YOU NOKIA!

@ Gucci,
Hmmm, I dunno. Nokia certainly levelled what little playing field there was with the N95; there's been enough comparisons to show that with the current line-up of phones, Nokia's 5mp cams are THE ones to beat.
If I think back to the days of VGA and 1.3mp cams, both the 7600 I have and the 3230 I had took pretty damn good pics, compared to the same pixel cams that
offered. (a mate had a W550i, for example, and I had experience with the T610, T630 and of course P900 to compare). The only
phone that could topple The Dark Side in these categories was the CCD sensor equiped S700i.
Personally, I think
only made some serious headway when they brought out the K750i and W800i.
The cams in those still are the benchmark 2mp cams out there, IMHO.
On the other hand, their el cheapo, non-a/f 2mp cameras on some of their other cellphones are some of the worst that I've ever played around with..
As for the 3.2mp offerings, well both the N73 and P1i cams have their strengths and weaknesses; there really isn't a clear-cut winner in this segment, from my own personal experiences.

@ Hobbster,
Strange that the other
P990i users in that thread haven't mentioned that.
Gonna shell out the shekels for the app as well.
