@QVGA,
oh i thougt i have missed it, does w960 carry the qwerty keyboard as in p1? gosh, how could i miss it? as far as i'm concerned, the w950 carried the same platform as in m600 as well as p990, but how could the three of them vary in terms of performance? knowing my w950 can manage memory better than my m600? and sadly my p990 performed the worse among all?
both w960 and n95 8gb aint out yet, and do u think it's fair to judge on the n95 8 gb just because it's the same platform found on n95 original?
in my case, nokia has failed with their n91 4 gb with the constant problem of losing data on the hdd, can't be bothered with the 8gb version thoug, as i thought it's just the same hardware only a boost 4gb,so it's interesting to wait and see how this n95 8gb performs, hope they dont make the mistake they did with n91

The N95 8GB isnt HDD its flash memory. Same as the W950, W960, Iphone, ipod touch ect....
I think SE could be in trouble this year and pay the price for not being more innovative. Not only the N95 but the G600 has already shown how poorly the K850 can perform. I can see the N95 8 gb having a similar effect with the W960 in terms of multimedia storage/playback.
Apart from touch screen it supercedes the W960i specs in just about every dept.

@ bavlondon2
GSM Arena just recently had an impromptu "shoot-out" with the K850 vs. the N95. Overall the N95 came out on top in the totals for points in the imaging area. Mind you, the K850 they used was a pre-production model. Does anyone know if the N95 they used was the old one, or one of the newer ones?... They mention in the article that the N95 seemed to have addressed some of its earlier problems with imaging, but they never come out and say outright if it was due to a firmware update or because it is a newer model that they used...

I would imagine that the N95 used in that shoot out would have been a production model. Why would they use a pre production model when its been out for so long. But you can already see the N95 has a longer focal length than the K850 so pics will naturally be better.

Yes it has 128 mb ram now, same as P1. So much better apparantly

yup that is true. SE may be in deep trouble, unless they start inventing something that is on par with NOKIA, but up till now, i am satisfied with SE, all the necessary things i need in a mobile phone, including the quality, is answered by P1i so far, but i start to like the GPS module on my 6110 navigator, it's better than the N95 and E90 i must say. i start thinking and wishing that SE will come up with a good built in GPS the least

I am going to give you the only piece of information that you require in this choice.
P1/P990/W950 returns - ~17%
N95 Returns - ~48%
Could it be that Nokia sells ALOT more N95s than SE has sold/is selling P1/P990/W950/m600 combined? Aren't the P990, W950, M600 and P1i selling for like dirt cheap and, unlike the N95, still not selling very well?
I think Seunlock is refering to the phones they have sold!
I owned a SIM free N95 for two months and wouldnt have one again it is the most overhyped bit of kit I have ever owned.

Which is why they made the N95 8gb.
Its a similar situation with SE. The P1 is effectivley the P990 put right.

I am not sure adding storage will solve the inherent problems the N95 has, The P1 is a development of the Mseries rather than the next generation of the P990

I think youll find it more than just storage. Its also more ram, a better battery life, a bigger screen and better build quaity and of course the new version of maps and a few tweaks to multimedia menus.
And yet you call adding a 3.2mp cameraa, wifi and a few buttons on the side an "evolution" of the mseries?
Apart from a qwerty keypad can you name any feature in which the n95 8gb is surpassed on the P1/W960?
