Yeah I personally don't like WM5 and the P990 is a let down, and seeing as it'll be a while before a P1000 is announced, I can wish the N95 has a touch screen.
But one thing I have to say is that it doesn't have to compete with the PDA market to have a touch screen. Take a look at that new SE flip phone for example.

I think the main problem with Windows on PPC and mobile phones is, its just rather dull and boring to use. As much as a touchscreen would be nice in the N95, i dont think id miss it. The phone will function fine without it IMO. Touchscreens suit some phones, and not others.
Btw, which SE handset are you referring to ?
EDIT: nm, i remember now, the Z558. Personally i dont see the point in the touchscreen. Also, i dont see the point in touchscreen phones if they have such a small screen. When i went from using a XDA2 to a P900 (and quickly switching back again) i realised just how tiny the P900 screen was, and it somehow felt a little unecessary to have a touchscreen on such a smalled screen device.

I'd say it's an Asia thing. Middle East love it too.
Europe just doesn't like options 
I'd rather have 60 million ways of texting than just 2, but that's just me.

Not sure if this has been discussed already but do you think the N95 GPS will emulate a kinda in car GPS (like the TomToms with the view at an angle)?
If it will then I think that is great, if not then the uses are not as diverse.

Impressive!! just when i thought the p990 got that segment......now i wonder how much it'll cost? n93/p990 were almost matched, but now s.e has to think about a totally new model. and the fight continues........

I can't believe there is discussion here as to whether this phone is superior to the P990- hell the N80 is superior to the P990! |

saw this video link
http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_n95-video-1716.php
the first part is about N95, the video tells a whole lot
Compared this to P990i when it was first launched, looks like the initial trial version of N95 is much better than the retail P990i

well, the P990 is definitely far from perfect. but i don't think mobile-review's assessment of the N80 coincides with yours. you can read about their experience with the N80 for two months after upgrading the firmware.
just when i was thinking about giving S60 another chance after throwing the last one out after two weeks of hell...
