Jim, why would you want the phone that is look like blackberry? - it's not cool ;-) I bought my N95 at tigerdirect.ca and like it except for need for external keyboard and battery life but I do: - listen music over Bluetooth A2DP about or more 4 hours a day - SIP over Wifi everywhere at home and in all Starbuckses over boingo ($8USD/months) except my office(). It does not last a day in this mode so prepare yourself for another power adapter if you'll lave similar usage patterns ... I can not comment on 3G - still want to find a time to convince Fido to sell me 6G Data for 30$ but there is a setting for "Allow SIP Over WCDMA" somewhere ... ... and camera is great :-)
