Nokia N95 - from a developer's point of view

(Updated 2007-05-27 - see below)

I've had my hands on the Nokia N95 now for about a week (thanks, work!).
I was excited to get it, as it had build in GPS - which my N80 didn't.

However, there are a few flaws.

* Battery life.
* GPS sensitivity
* SatNav - or rather not.
* Easy to crash/hang
* Applications aren't killed properly by the phone
* Security permissions

Battery life.

How to update your Nokia N80 to the N80 Internet Edition firmware

Well, I bought an N80 because it said it supported SIP.

And indeed it did support it - technically. It had a SIP stack that allowed me to register with SIP servers, but it lacked a client to allow me to make SIP calls. That's the equivalent of something saying that it's "Internet ready" coming with an IP address, but no web browser. Technically true.
