I really like to buy the this phone, but what is stopping me is the price, the negative feedback regarding it's processor and the battery life.
I like what is inside but in order for me to enjoy it the whole day the battery should at least last for 16 hours.
Can any one just post any hands on experience on this phone, it will really help us.

Does it mean that N95 8GB is faster than N96 because N95 8GB has dual arm 11 332 MHz CPU? while N96 got only dual arm 9 264 MHz CPU.

I like N95 8gb better because it has a better battery and IR-port...not interested in DVB-H.

this phone may seem slow because it has a processor that's about 300 mhz, but its a DUAL processor.... that means it will function extremely efficiently! Nokia's trying to put computer technology into thier phones, and dual processors are the best way to start!
NOKIA'S ON TOP OF THEIR GAME.....
