imho opinion the N95 is a step into the right direction, but, oh oh, bad start. to put it simple, the N95 comes at a hefty price tag, so i expected more. here's what i don't like about it:

- camera startup time is super slow, 4 sec. to be up and running is too much. in my experience it's also very hard to take photos that aren't blurry
- gallery and other inbuilt apps also are very clumsy, slow to start up etc.
- mp3 player has less than mediocre sound quality
- and the battery life is terrible

whats great is:
- the wifi really does work everywhere, from all apps, except strangly, the inbuilt IM and VoIP apps, but other than that no artificial restrictions
- isync works, don't know about linux
- installing of 3rd party software is easy and not restricted
- it plays all mp3s, no drm-check

in the end, it's just another piece of plastic, overrated, underpreforming, i think i am finally getting sick of this gadget craze. i wish they still built phones like the nokia 7650, sturdy, that kept running and running... well, ofc with a better camera would be sweet.

this is fantastic news indeed. especially since their last album, hail to the thief, was released with heavy copy protection, which sadly still remains a sore spot in my radiohead fandom. it seems that this is a move into the right direction from that, even if we have to wait and see what mp3s we will get, drm, quality, etc...
