Delivery was speedy and trouble-free. No affiliation, except as a satisfied customer. Only problem was that the headset was broken out of the box, so I did just have the misfortune of dealing with the NokiaUSA folks, who were indeed not too polite and clueless to booth (support rep kept trying to insuate I was using some third-party headset, even though I repeatedly told him it was the one that came *with* the phone *in the original box*, so clearly a Nokia headset -- and he really should know which model headset that is, rather than having me try to find the (very well hidden) model number. Having said that (and on a positive note), I really love my N95, in fact had I known we could have synced up for a demo yesterday at mobile 2.0, though there wasn't any shortage of N95s there. Coming from a E61 I do of course miss a full keyboard, but not as much as I expected (have a Think Outside BT keyboard I use when I am stationary and T9 gets too painful). Camera, GPS et al are wonderful, as is the extra CPU horsepower (finally a S60 device that doesn't feel sluggish) and memory.
