I got mine in January. It's had a LOT of use, and even though it's pretty battle damaged, it's still going strong. In the UK we have a 3G phone network, so I get to use it as a phone as well as a video camera.
You can see it in action on all 190 or so posts at http:// twittervlog.tv/ It's brilliant. But it does crash occasionally. And it's poor in low light. That's about all the bad things I have to say about it. The battery's pretty good. Good enough for me, anyway. The N95 is the one with real battery problems, I hear, but that's a lot to do with all the things you have running on the system, like GPS. It has a built-in editor and wifi, so you can shoot, cut and email your video to Blip, who will then auto-crosspost to your blog if you want (and add tags). You need never touch a bloody computer to post a videoblog ;) I got the cheapest mini SD memory card I could - 2GB - and didn't notice any change in the crashing frequency or speed of it. Other people on this list who have them are David Howell and Steve Garfield. Go for it - good luck :) On 24 Oct 2007, at 23:54, johnleeke wrote: I'm ready to buy an N93 for vlogging here in the US. Where did you buy yours? When? What brand of memory chip works best? How many hours/minutes of video shooting do you get per battery charge? Have you had any battery problems? (I've heard of poor-performance batteries discarding by the factory slipping back into the market.) Thanks for your help. John [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
